FAQs

What's the speed limit in Newcastle?

Like other parts of Australia, the speed limit in Newcastle is variable based on surrounding population density and road infrastructure. There is a default speed limit of 50 km/h in residential areas, which rises to 60 km/h, 70 km/h, or 80 km/h on connecting roads. On local and state highways, the speed limit rises to 100 km/h and 110 km/h in select locations. When driving in Newcastle, it's important to be aware of school zones, which are limited to 40 km/h or less during allocated hours on Monday to Friday.

Do I need an Australian driving license to rent a car in Newcastle?

The Driver must (i) hold a full, current and valid driving licence (not being a learners licence or provisional licence), (ii) have an International Driving Permit (IDP) or official translation (if a licence is not in Roman alphabet), (iii) have held their licence for minimum 12 consecutive months immediately prior to signing the Rental Agreement.

An International Driving Permit is not a stand-alone document and this must be carried with your valid domestic driving licence for it to be valid.

Digital drivers licences are only accepted in the issuing state. If you're travelling interstate you must present a physical (plastic) drivers licence.

What is the age requirement to rent a car in Newcastle?

There are select Avis locations that allow returns outside of business hours. Please contact the return location directly or contact the Avis Reservations team to check if this is possible on 136 333.

If you return the vehicle before the original return date (early return), you will not be refunded any portion of your payment. This does not detract from your rights as a consumer under applicable consumer protection legislation, including the Australian Consumer Law.
