All drivers must have a current and full driver’s licence to hire a vehicle. Overseas licences are acceptable if they are in English or French, or accompanied by an accredited translation. If your licence is in a language other than English or French, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is required.
Even if your licence is in English or French, if you plan to visit Canada for a longer period of time (3 months or more), you may be required to obtain an IDP as well. The rules vary between provinces, so make sure to check in advance and take note of local regulations.
Note: policies vary from supplier to supplier. Always check the T&Cs for your rental.
