In Vanuatu, vehicles drive on the right-hand side of the road. Main roads are generally paved and well-maintained, but some rural or remote areas may have unpaved roads that can be rough and uneven. It's common to encounter pedestrians, animals, and slow-moving vehicles on the roads, especially in rural areas. Fuel stations are available in urban areas and major towns; however, in more remote areas, fuel stations may be scarce, so plan your refueling accordingly.

Most companies here are going to expect you to be at least 23 years old to rent a car. This can go as high as age 25, but some of the local companies will rent to a person who is 21. Rental franchises like Europcar will also want to see that you have held your license for at least one year to rent a car, but local companies may not have this requirement. Most renters under age 23 will pay some sort of surcharge for their rental.

Because this country is a chain of small islands, you can expect to pay somewhat higher prices for gas. As a general example, the cost of a gallon of gas is about 729 VT ($7.29 USD) which is about 190 VT ($1.29 USD) per liter. It is important to remember that these are the prices you will find in larger cities like Port Vila, and as you get to more remote areas, prices can increase, and availability can potentially decrease.

The general speed limits in Vanuatu can vary depending on where you are driving, but in urban areas like Port Vila, you will find they are about 20 mph. As you get on more open roads away from cities, you will find speed limits of about 30 mph. On highways, the limit is around 50 mph.
