Essential facts about International Driving Permits

  • For Novice IDP holders, it’s advisable to use International Licensing Agencies to process an International Driving Permit. As they are new into the process, doing so will be a safe hack. It guarantees a smooth process and ensures that all the necessary details are taken care of.

  • An IDP is only needed if you plan to drive outside your home country.

  • 186 countries recognize International Driving Permit.

  • A U.S. Citizen may drive without an IDP in Canada for 90 days. They are permitted to drive in Mexico as well with no time restrictions.

  • France and Spain require no IDP for any citizenship.

  • Some specific states in the U.S (California, Massachusetts, and Arizona) may ask for an international driving permit. It’s wise to check before diving on their roads. Other states do not.

  • Even though a permit is your getaway ticket to drive in a foreign country, it does not guarantee safety. To consider all odds, you will need to double-check all driving laws and regulations for visiting the country.

  • Your IDP is not proof of your driving skill. It’s just a permit. That’s why you need to have the driving license on you and present both to any legal authority.

  • Your IDP is considered proof of Identity if stopped by a foreign authority.

  • Countries are different in languages and culture, but driving rules and habits are also different. For instance, all passengers on foot are only permitted to cross the road on the Zebra crossing in the U.S. In contrast, zebra crossing is not an integral part of the road in some overseas countries- especially third-world ones. So, getting mentally and psychologically ready before choosing to drive in another country might save you from traffic infractions.

  • If you are not a resident in any U.S. state or coming on a visit, you won’t issue an IDP for the legal authorities. Instead, you’ll have to publish your IDP in compliance with your country’s legal rules.

  • Although your IDP is considered proof of Identity, it cannot stand alone as legal documentation for driving. Therefore, you need to present your existing driving license and IDP.
