Hi there,

I am Jennie from Malaysia, 22 years old. I am currently an international student in Canada. I hold a full Malaysian driving licence, and I plan to drive in Canada. What should I do?

1. Do I need to obtain an IDP (International Driving Permit)? If yes, where can I get it, from M'sia or Canada?
2. As I know, IDP only available for one year. Can I renew it in Canada when it expires?
3. Do I require to take the Canadian road sense test (L) and Road-driving test (N), if I have a Malaysian full driving licence(P)?

These questions have been bothering me. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks

Your experience driving in the EU will be recognized in Ontario. You will be able to skip the G1 (learners phase) if you "self declare" 12 months or more of driving experience.

Here's an excerpt form the Ontario Government web site -

"Applicants who self–declare more than 12 months of driving experience at the time of application are required to present written authentication of their out-of-country driving experience from the originating licensing agency, or from the Embassy, Consulate or High Commissioners’ offices representing the licensing jurisdiction."

You can learn more by going to the Drivershandbook.com web site and selecting Ontario

In which countries I can drive using my Dubai driving license?

An International Driving Permit is just a translation of your regular license. It is NOT a license. So, Tiago, you can drive whatever your regular license allows you to drive.

With a B IDP type, which kind of vehicles can you drive?

International Driving licenses are usually administered by a national auto club.

If the language on your driving license is NOT the same as the language in the country you are going to you are well advices to get the IDL

Thanks for answer. I am in North Carolina.
In this state it is valid to give test drive on rental car?

If you are in the USA it depends on which state you are in. For example if you are a foreign driver the test will be waived in South Carolina but not in Tennessee.

IDPs are valid for 12 months

I have an IDP from Trinidad and Tobago, what is the time period do I have to drive in the state of Texas, USA?

We were just told by Avis that an IDP is required for rentals in Italy... this is the first I had ever heard of such!

Do US citizen require international driving license to drive in Italy, if he is holding US driving license.

I have found the most convenient and less expensive place to get an IDP is with Triple A (AAA--the automobile club). You can walk in any office and they'll take your pics. there for a fee ($7--member, $10--non-member) or you can bring 2 passport type pics in with you. The IDP costs $15 and you walk out with it then. No waiting weeks to get it thru the mail. You can get office locations and phone #'s on line. I've heard of people getting scammed sending off for IDP's. Be aware! Triple A is a reputable company to deal with.

Tim, You CAN apply for an IDP by mail but it takes a while (they say about 10 days).


Here's what the UK Automobile Association Web site (www.theaa.com)says --

"You can obtain an IDP over the counter at many post offices.

You must apply IN PERSON (no third-party applications). You must complete an application form, available from the post office. You must also produce one of the following ORIGINAL valid documents:

* your UK driving licence (if photocard licence: photocard and counterpart), or
* your UK pass certificate (certificate of competence to drive, valid for two years from the date of your test), together with your provisional driving licence"


"By post

If it's not convenient for you to get to a post office, you may apply by post to the AA. However, please note that your application may take at least 10 working days to be processed from the date of receipt.

Print off an application form and complete the details. Then send it to the address shown on the form, including your payment and the relevant documents (see the IDP checklist on the form). "

I am now in UAE (Dubai) with a UK drivers license. Can I get an international drivers license here ( to support my new job) or do I have to fly back to the UK to do this. Any advice will be welcomed

i am erom sudan

My wife is Armenian, and would like to obtain a driver's license while we're stationed in Slovakia. All driving instruction here in Slovakia is in Slovak. However, my wife only speaks Armenian, Russian, and English. Any ideas?

Sameer, I'm not 100% certain of this but I believe you can drive for 60 - 90 days on your home driving license. If you intend to stay longer get an IDP (International Driving Permit) through your local auto club

What are all the mandatory requirements for a foreigner for the short term rental driving in USA.(i.e. DL IDP etc.)
