The minimum driving age for every local driver in the country is 17 years old. However, there are specifications by car rental companies regarding the minimum age requirement to rent a motor vehicle. Thus, regardless of the minimum driving age being 17 years old, you probably cannot drive a vehicle in the country since you can’t rent them in the first place.
