In addition, The International Driving Permit (IDP) certifies that the holder is authorised to drive a vehicle in a foreign country (according to the category or categories for which they hold a national driving licence).

Furthermore, the IDP, which is valid for one year, helps protect you and your family in the event of an accident and/or vehicle damage while driving abroad. Also, the IDP is also recognised all over the world. In addition, it is available in 10 different languages in order to help travellers overcome language barriers.
