456. Permis de conduire international
Un permis de conduire international (PCI) est un document qui traduit les informations d’un permis national dans un format standardisé pour une utilisation à l’étranger. Il peut aider les autorités à comprendre un permis étranger, mais ne remplace pas le permis national original. Le conducteur doit normalement présenter les deux documents ensemble. La nécessité d’un PCI dépend du pays ayant délivré le permis et du pays où la personne souhaite conduire ; il faut donc vérifier les exigences avant le voyage.
What is an International Driving Permit?
An International Driving Permit (IDP) is a standardised document that translates information from a national driving licence for use in other countries.
Is an International Driving Permit a driving licence?
No. An IDP does not replace a valid national driving licence. It is normally valid only when carried together with the licence on which it is based.
When do you need an International Driving Permit?
This depends on where your driving licence was issued and the country where you want to drive. Some countries recognise foreign national licences directly, while others require or recommend an IDP.
Can you use an International Driving Permit without your national licence?
Generally, no. You should carry your valid national driving licence together with the IDP.
Is an International Driving Permit valid everywhere?
No. Recognition depends on international conventions and national law. Drivers should check the requirements of every country they plan to visit.
Where can you obtain an International Driving Permit?
An IDP must be obtained from an authorised organisation or authority in the appropriate country. It should not be confused with unofficial documents sold online as international driving licences.
