That’s it! You’ll walk out with your IDP in less than 10 minutes. Time and money well spent to be able to drive around the world.
Recommendations
POST DATE YOUR IDP - you can set the starting date of your IDP. Choose the first day of your holiday (or date that you’ll first need to drive) rather than the day you apply for the IDP.
IDP EXPIRATION - Your IDP will expire after 1 year, or the same day your Driver’s License expires. Make sure you have at least a full year of validity left on your license to get the most value from your IDP.
