Therefore, while traveling abroad, it is essential to carry both documents and ensure compliance with the traffic laws and speed limits of the country you are visiting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an International Driving Permit or IDP?

An IDP is essentially a translation document of your driver’s license in several different languages. It is used to translate your driver’s license into a language that your destination country understands.

It is by no means a replacement for your original driver’s license or a legal document like a passport. An IDP is only valid if you have your original license with you.

Some countries, car rental agencies, insurance companies, and/or traffic authorities may ask to see your IDP whenever you are abroad, so it is best to keep one handy at all times.

Then again, it is highly important that you always carry and show your original license along with the IDP whenever asked.

What is the difference between international driver's license and an international driving permit?

An international driver's license does not exist, so it does not grant any driving privileges and is not considered as a substitute for a valid domestic driver's license.

Whereas an international driving permit (IDP) is a travel document that is regulated by the United Nations and governed by international conventions. It is a translation of a driver's license that allow the holder to drive abroad. However, an IDP is also not a replacement of your valid driver's license from your home country.

The IDP is a booklet (A6 size - 148 x 105 mm) slightly bigger than the passport with grey cover and white pages inside.

How much does an IDP cost?

Our pricing varies depending on the years of validity and package. The digital package starts at $49 and the printed package starts at $69 with shipping fees. Please visit here for more detailed information.

Do I need an IDP?

If your driver’s license is in the same language as the language of your destination country, you might not need an IDP. Take our quiz to ensure whether you need to translate your original driver’s license or contact your destination’s traffic authorities and offices for more information.

What are the requirements to get an International Driving Permit?

You will have to submit a valid copy of the front and back of your driver’s license for verification. You will also need to upload a passport style photo and your signature. Once your payment for the application has been accepted, we will process the application! Start your application here.
