Why do you need an International Driving License?
An International Driving Permit — commonly referred to as an International Driving License — translates your driver’s licence into multiple languages, allowing you to drive anywhere in the world with ease. As a result, it becomes easier to communicate with local authorities and meet car rental requirements across different countries. Your IDP works alongside your original national licence — therefore, you must carry both your international driving licence and national driving licence when driving abroad.
An IDP is required in all countries that are signatories to the UN Convention on Road Traffic. Furthermore, even where it is not strictly mandatory, most car rental companies will require one before releasing a vehicle. Therefore, always obtain your IDP before you travel.
Since driving laws vary by country, it is recommended that you check local regulations before your trip to ensure full compliance. ITCA issues International Driving Permits under the UN Conventions of 1949 and 1968, consequently recognised in 175 countries and translated into 17 languages.
