How it Works?

FAQ

What is IDA?
The International Driving Authority (IDA) is an international organization that issues IDPs in compliance with the United Nations’ 1949 Geneva Convention on Road Traffic and the 1968 Vienna Convention on Road Traffic, meeting the requirements for the size, format, and contents of the document. IDA provides driving license translation and localization services and ships IDPs worldwide. The International Driving Authority (IDA) is not associated with or endorsed by the American Automobile Association, Inc. (AAA), nor does it claim to be a governmental agency. The product offered is a standardized translation document and should not be considered a substitute for an official driving license.
How can I apply for an International Driving Permit?
We have developed a simple and clear-cut application procedure. Fill out the online application form, attach a copy of your valid national driving license, your signature and color photograph and make a payment. You can get an International Drivers License online here.
What do I have to prepare to get an International Driver’s License online?
The procedure of obtaining the International Driving License is pretty simple. All you need is to provide the following:
  • A photo of your valid national driving permit;
  • Relevant driver information;
  • A recent passport-size selfie photograph;
  • Your signature (scanned copy or a photograph);
  • Payment for your International Driver's License of your choice.
What driving category should I specify?
The categories specified should coincide with those on your driving license.
Will my full name be specified on the International Driving Permit?
We are obliged to issue an IDP with a name specified on your national driving license since the document we provide you with is an accurate translation of your driving license. If the spelling of your name on your driver's license differs from that on your passport, you may also submit a passport photo so that we can record your name as it appears in your passport.
Can I replace my national driving license with the International Driving Permit?
No, the International Driving Permit cannot replace your national driving license. It is a complementary document that serves only as a translation of your driver’s license. You are still required to carry your national driving license when driving a car overseas. The IDP provided by IDA is a non-official, non-governmental document and does not substitute for your state-issued driver’s license or photo ID. This supplementary document functions as a standardized translation and digital storage of your valid national driver’s license. It is not the IDP issued by AAA, AATA, or any similar agency; those documents are issued by governmental agencies or private organizations designated by a country’s government, and they are the only official translations of a national driver’s license.
Can I pay for someone else or use someone’s credit card for making a payment?
Yes, you can. However, please, contact us after the payment via email [email protected] and specify the first name, last name and email address of a person you paid for or vice versa to speed up the process.
How can I use my International Driving Permit?
Imagine a situation: while staying abroad, your driving license is not considered legal due to non-compliance. It may really spoil your journey. However, if you decide to get the International Driving License (IDL), it will help you save time, money and nerves. One of the outstanding benefits of IDL is that it allows you to rent a car all over the world and be sure you won’t face any problems with local police enforcers. Nevertheless, in case the police stop you, do not worry and show your International Driving License and a language translation upon immediate request. Policemen may also ask you to show your valid national driver’s license. International Driving Authority has a secure database containing information about all international permits ever issued. A special mobile application helps you scan the QR code on each card to find out validity, status and any other information concerning International Driving Permit no matter if you are online or offline. The data is available in 70 languages.
