Most visitors can use their regular driving licence. You may need an International Driving Permit (IDP) if your licence isn’t in English. Rental companies also ask for matching ID, and some require a credit card deposit.

Parking your car in Cape Town

Finding fuel or charging points

Petrol stations sit along major roads and near malls. Charging points are expanding across the city, though some suburbs have fewer options. Apps like PlugShare show available locations.

Local driving style and tips

Drivers are steady on main routes but quicker on highways.

Traffic slows near beaches and tourist areas. Watch for minibus taxis making sudden stops, and take care at night on unlit roads. Keep a safe distance and stay alert for pedestrians.
