An International Driving permit is document recognized by many countries which allows the permit-holder to drive a private motor vehicle in that country. When traveling overseas, carry an International Driving Permit … even if you’re not planning to drive. Should you need to communicate with foreign authorities, this recognizable form of identification can help you get on your way more quickly.
To be valid the IDP must be accompanied by a valid license from the home country. The document is slightly larger than a standard passport and is essentially a multiple language translation of the permit-holder’s normal driver’s license, complete with photograph and vital statistics. In most countries however, short term visitors do not need to possess an IDP since the license of the home country is recognized and permits one to drive in the host country.
Valid in over 150 countries, the permit contains your name, photo and driver information translated into ten languages. Carried in conjunction with a regular drivers license, the IDP can help break down language barriers when traveling in non-English speaking countries. In addition, the IDP provides an additional source of identification.

• International Driving Permit Application
