If you are renting a car in another country, you may need an International
Driving Permit. CIBT can obtain this important document for you.
International Driving Permits are recognized in over 160 countries, and they are
mandatory in over 80 countries.
A similar document, the Inter-American Driving Permit is recognized throughout
Latin America and is mandatory for driving in such places as Brazil and
Uruguay. CIBT can obtain either document. In the U.S., the permits are issued
by AAA in accordance with the United Nations Convention on Road Traffic.
If you are planning to rent a car or drive a private vehicle, then there is a
good chance that you need this special license. In some cases the permit must
be shown to the rental car agency - in other cases, it’s only needed in the
event of a traffic accident or violation.
If you have any questions about the driving requirements for a particular
destination, please call the CIBT at (800) 929-2428.
CIBT’s processing fee is $45, plus the issuance fee of $15 and the shipping fee of $21.
