Driving rules in the Vatican:

  • If you are traveling through the Vatican as a tourist, we recommend only renting vehicles with an official license (they are marked with a corresponding “T” on the roof). Before getting into a taxi, make sure the meter in the car has been reset.
  • If you are a pedestrian, cross the road only in designated areas. Be careful in those sections of the road where the pedestrian crossing stripes are vaguely visible. Drivers often ignore such crossings. Keep that in mind. A green traffic light signal allows pedestrians and turning cars to move simultaneously.
  • Note that Italy has introduced a ban on the entry of private and rental cars into historic city centers without an official pass.
  • The maximum permitted speed on state roads is 30 km/h (19 mph).
  • Do not drive under the influence of alcohol.

With the DLT you will overcome any language barriers and will be able to easily drive worldwide. It doesn’t matter what foreign country you are going to visit, as you can rent a car all around the world with the International Driver Document (IDD). If you are stopped while driving, show both your International Driving License (IDL) and your domestic driving license. You will also have a translation book and can show it if needed.

You need to fill out a simple application form and apply online if you want to get the International Driving Permit (IDP). We need only to obtain some personal information: your domestic driving license ID, your personal info, your address and a photo of you.

We have a nice price, so traveling in comfort without problems with renting or taking a car will not cost you a fortune.
