    International driving permits

    Need to drive overseas? We can help.

    An International Driving Permit (IDP) is a tourist driver’s licence that allows you to drive overseas without needing more tests or applications. RAA are the only organisation in South Australia authorised to issue International Driving Permits.

    Things you should know

    • Your International Driving Permit will be valid for 12 months. 
    • The permit is a translation of your valid Australian driver’s licence into nine languages (English, French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, Greek, German and Japanese). It can be a handy form of ID when talking with foreign authorities.
