FAQs About Car Hire
Driver's Licence
At time of rental you must present a valid driver’s licence appropriate for the vehicle you are intending to drive.
NZ law requires you to carry your driver’s licence with you whenever you are driving as well as requiring that your licence be in English.
If your driver’s licence is in any language other than English it must be accompanied by an English translation or an International Drivers Permit. This must also be produced before renting a vehicle.
Licence translation (into English) must be provided by -
- A NZ Transport Agency authorised translation service, or
- A diplomatic representative at a high commission, embassy or consulate, or
- The authority that issued the overseas licence.
The following documents may also be acceptable as a translation -
- An International driving permit – issued in accordance with a United Nations Convention on road traffic
- A translation document issued by a Notary Public Office in China.
Please find the link below to NZTA approved translators -
https://www.nzta.govt.nz/driver-licences/new-residents-and-visitors/approved-translators/
The above also applies to all named additional drivers.
It is recommended that you arrange a translation before arriving to collect a vehicle – this will eliminate delays or potential refusal to provide you with a vehicle.
A learner, provisional or restricted licence is not an accepted licence to rent a vehicle from Hertz.

Hertz provide you with a full tank of fuel at time of rental and options are available for replacing the fuel you use.
Options include -
Fuel Purchase Option (FPO)
FPO allows you to purchase a full tank of fuel at a discounted rate at commencement of the rental. You are not required to return the vehicle with a full tank of fuel, thus saving time as well as money. Any unused fuel is Non-Refundable.
Re-fuelling Service Option (FCL)
A refueling service is offered for your convenience when you choose to return the vehicle with less than a full tank of fuel. Hertz will refill the vehicle for you and the refueling service charge will be added to the cost of the rental. This option is available at all Hertz locations, however fuel charges may vary by location.
Renter Refills Vehicle
You may personally refill the tank at a petrol/fuel station with the correct fuel for the vehicle, using either unleaded or diesel according to which fuel the vehicle takes. Make sure you check the refill with the correct type of fuel for the rental vehicle. This must be done immediately prior to returning the vehicle to a Hertz location.
