Hiring a child seat with a rental vehicle in New Zealand

A child seat needs to suit your child and fit the vehicle. When you enquire, give our team each child's age, height and weight, and say whether you need to hire a seat or bring your own.

Child seats in campervans

Before booking, confirm the number and type of child seats your chosen campervan can take, along with seat availability and hire charges. Our New Zealand campervan child-seat guide explains vehicle fit, local rules, bringing your own seat and what to check at pick-up.

New Zealand child-restraint rules

Children under 7 must use an approved child restraint that suits their age and size. At age 7, they must use an approved restraint if one is available in the vehicle.

A seat brought from overseas must meet an approved New Zealand standard and fit the vehicle. See NZTA's current child-restraint requirements and Plunket's guidance on choosing and fitting a seat.
