The document, opened up
Before you pay anyone — us included — know exactly what you're buying. An International Driving Permit translation restates your licence in the 12 languages border officials and rental agents actually read. It answers one question for the person holding it: what is this driver allowed to drive?
What's inside
- Your details and photo, laid out in the international format
- Your licence classes (A–E) with their meaning in 12 languages
- Issue and expiry dates matching the term you chose
Three formats, one document
- The booklet
- A5-size, sits in the glovebox. What desks expect to see.
- The wallet card
- Credit-card size, lives behind your licence.
- The PDF
- On your phone in 24 h — the backup that's always with you.
The legal position, plainly
Two UN conventions (Geneva 1949, Vienna 1968) define the international permit format. Government-authorised bodies issue official permits.
Ours is a private professional translation in that same 12-language layout. It is not government-issued, and we operate exactly nowhere that claims otherwise.
In practice: desks and roadside checks need to read your licence. In 150+ countries a clear translation next to the original does that job. Where only the official permit counts, our country pages say so in red.
