Heeft u een internationaal rijbewijs nodig?

In de meeste landen heeft u een internationaal rijbewijs nodig naast uw nationale rijbewijs om legaal te rijden of een auto te huren. Het vertaalt uw gegevens in 12 talen zodat politie, grensbeambten en verhuurbalies ze ter plaatse kunnen lezen en verifiëren. Zelfs waar het niet strikt vereist is, bespaart een IDP u kostbare misverstanden — het wordt erkend in 189+ landen onder de VN-verdragen van 1949 (Genève) en 1968 (Wenen).
