International Driving Permit Association (IDPA)
The document issued by International Driving Permit Association (IDPA) is a non-official translation of your existing national driver’s license. It is provided in two formats: a printed translation booklet and a digital translation version, translating the information on your original driver’s license into multiple languages to assist with communication while traveling abroad.
This translation service is designed solely to help overcome language barriers when presenting your valid domestic driver’s license to authorities, rental agencies, or other relevant parties.
Digital Convenience Feature
As an additional convenience, IDPA offers a secure digital translation card that allows you to store an electronic copy of your valid driver’s license on your smartphone for easy reference. This feature does not replace the requirement to carry your original license.
No Official or Governmental Status
Only International Driving Permits (IDPs) issued by government authorities or officially authorized organizations have legal recognition as official driving permit translations.
The document provided by IDPA:
- Has no official or governmental status
- Does not grant legal driving rights
- Does not provide any privileges or legal authority
- Does not replace a government-issued driver’s license or identification document
