Find Out the Details of International Driver License

View the International Driving Permit Directory to learn if an IDP is required or recommended for your location. Driving directions, the name of the local Automobile Club, the reciprocal services for which you are covered as long as you hold an active membership in the Automobile Club, and their contact information are all included in the directory.

Unless your Singaporen driver’s licence has expired, been suspended, or been revoked, the international driver license happens to be valid for one year. In addition to the services, members of other motor clubs in other countries may also be eligible for assistance.

Applicants must be at least 18 years old and in possession of a current and valid driver’s licence issued by a Singaporen jurisdiction to be considered for an International Driving Permit.

Here is a list of crucial data pertaining to foreign driver’s licences:

You must carry both your IDP and your valid driver’s licence from your home state or territory of Singapore at all times, as neither can be used without the other.

There is no way that their presence may absolve you of your duty to abide by the laws of the nations you visit.

Your Singaporen driver’s licence will be valid for either one year from the date it was issued or until the date it expired (whichever is the lesser period).

You won’t be able to affix a postmark to this one.

When your current IDP expires, you can apply for a new one; but, if you plan to stay abroad for more than a year, you’ll need to apply for a local licence.

Drivers must already hold a valid licence from a state or territory in Singapore in order to apply (not an overseas driving licence).

Limit distribution to persons over the age of eighteen (includes provisional licence or P plate).

A valid Learner’s Permit is required for this licence, so those who already have one cannot apply.

A valid driver’s licence is a useful form of identification to have on hand when travelling internationally, even if you don’t plan on driving.

Is a kind of identification that is recognised internationally (in over 150 countries) and is backed by the United Nations.

Keep your identification information handy in nine different languages in case you ever need to present it to authorities abroad (including English, French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, Greek, German, and Japanese).

As well as including your basic biographical data, it also serves as an additional form of identification (this can be valuable if you are ever requested to surrender your passport, which can happen under certain circumstances in some countries).

Traveling by car in a strange nation

Will you have time to do any sight-seeing or other sightseeing while you’re away? Get an International Driving Permit (IDP) before you leave, and you’ll have more freedom to see the sights.

Before leaving the country, find out if you need an International Driving Permit (IDP). If you have an International Driving Permit (IDP), you can drive legally in any country in the world without taking any additional exams. Since many nations now mandate that visitors with a car have an International Driving Permit (IDP), it’s crucial that you get one before you leave.
