TOP 5 REASONS TO HAVE AN IDP
1. Your IDP is a form of identification valid in 150 countries worldwide.
2. It translates your identification information into 10 languages.
3. Another country can’t issue an IDP to be used in conjunction with a U.S. driver’s license.
4. Many countries require an IDP to drive legally.
5. Fines for driving without an IDP can be costly.
An IDP gives you peace of mind while you’re out exploring the world, even if you’re not planning to drive!
