Field reports
Written from car parks, counters and roadside checks.
61,204 reviews, and the ones we learn most from are the ones sent while something was going wrong.
“Landed in Osaka at 11pm and realised the rental desk needed a permit. Applied from the taxi queue, had the digital copy before I reached the counter.”
“I've rented cars in fourteen countries. This is the only time the paperwork wasn't the worst part of the trip.”
“The booklet reached my hostel in Chiang Mai in four days. The tracking was accurate to the hour, which I did not expect.”
“A police officer outside Marrakech asked for it. He read the French page, handed it back, and waved us on. Ninety seconds.”
“Support caught that my licence photo was cropped before it went to print. Saved me a reissue and a week.”
“I book long trips for a living. I now send every client here first, because I've stopped getting calls from rental counters.”
Straight answers
What this document is — and what it isn't.
Plenty of sites in this category are vague on purpose. We would rather lose a sale than have you turned away at a counter in another time zone.
We are a private service, not a government agency.
International Driving Service prepares and delivers driving documentation. We are not a licensing authority and we do not issue or replace your home licence.
What you receive depends on your destination.
Some countries recognise a permit issued under the 1949 or 1968 conventions. Others accept a certified translation of your licence. We tell you which one applies before you pay.
Acceptance is set by local law, not by us.
Rules change, and enforcement varies between a rental desk in Lisbon and a checkpoint outside Nairobi. We publish what each destination currently expects and update it when it moves.
Your home licence still comes with you.
This document works alongside your original licence. On its own, in almost every country, it is not enough — so keep both in the glovebox.
Three guarantees, in plain terms
No claim forms, no 30-day windows
Refused at your destination? Full refund.
If the country you told us about does not accept the document we prepared, we return every cent — booklet, shipping and all.
Free reissue for our mistakes.
A wrong name, licence number or category is on us. We reprint and reship without a conversation about who was at fault.
Cancel before we print.
Nothing has gone to production until you get the dispatch email. Until then, a refund is one message away.
