International Driving Authority

What the service provides

International Driving Authority offers an International Driving Document (IDD) described on its site as a private translation of a valid national driving licence. The company expressly states that the document is not government-issued, is not an official International Driving Permit, and does not by itself grant legal driving rights. It is intended to accompany the traveller’s original valid licence. Acceptance can differ by destination, government authority and rental provider, so travellers should check requirements with the relevant official authority before paying.

Eligibility and application steps

The application begins by asking where the driving licence was issued and where the visitor plans to drive. The eligibility flow asks whether the applicant holds a valid home-country licence; the site says an expired or invalid licence is not accepted. The company describes a three-step process: check eligibility, submit an application and receive the document. It advertises a digital turnaround of about five minutes, but applicants should review the complete document requirements, delivery terms and destination rules before relying on that estimate.

Digital and printed options

The pricing page presents a digital-only option and a package combining a printed document with a digital copy. At the time represented in the source, the displayed amounts were $79 for digital-only and $99 for the combined package, with higher crossed-out comparison prices. Prices and promotions can change. The site also describes one-, two- and three-year validity choices, and mentions replacement copies; applicants should confirm the selected term, delivery method, total cost and refund policy at checkout.

Destinations and customer assistance

The site states that its document is used by travellers in 189 or more countries and lists destinations including the Philippines, Thailand, Portugal, Spain, the United Kingdom, Turkey, Indonesia, Malaysia, France, Greece, the United Arab Emirates and the United States. It offers 24/7 live-chat support, order tracking, FAQs and help with lost or updated files. The company’s country-acceptance statements do not replace checking local rules, and rental agencies may apply their own document requirements.
