Countries Where an IDP is Valid
We publish a guide for each of these 139 destinations, covering the convention that governs your permit there, how long it stays valid, and the local rules worth knowing before you drive.
Good to Know
An IDP is a translation of your existing licence, never a replacement, so always carry your original licence alongside it. Which convention applies depends on both the country that issued your licence and the one you are driving in — see the 1968 Vienna and 1949 Geneva vehicle-category guides.
