SOUTH
AFRICA DRIVERS LICENSE INFORMATION FOR CAPE TOWN CAR
RENTAL
Drivers
must have a valid driving license, which displays his/her
photograph upon it, or carry your passport with you
as positive identification to verify you as the legal
holder of the drivers license.
Your
license must be printed in English so a local traffic
officer can establish which class of vehicle you are
qualified to drive. If not, either an International
license should be purchased before arrival, or an affidavit/letter,
printed in English and stamped and signed by a commissioner
of oaths stating the class of vehicle you are permitted
to drive. The onus is on the driver to prove that he
or she is qualified to drive such a vehicle.
Many
Car rental companies are now insisting on an International
Drivers License. We would recommend that you apply for
an International Drivers License from your local AA
office before depart from home.
You
MUST carry your driving license on your person at all
times while driving in South Africa.
For
returning South Africans the old green ID drivers license
document is no longer valid & therefore not acceptable.
Please obtain an International drivers license before
arrival.
