International DL is an independent service and is not affiliated with AAA, IAA, ITA or any automobile club. Brand names are referenced only for comparison.
Auto clubs such as AAA (Triple A), IAA and ITA have long issued International Driving Permits, and they do a good job — but the process usually means visiting a branch in person during business hours, and sometimes holding a membership. International DL offers a modern online alternative that delivers the same kind of recognized document with far less effort. You apply from home, receive your digital permit the same day, and have the option of a physical booklet shipped to your door.
Unlike a club-based route, International DL has no membership requirement: anyone with a valid national driver’s license can apply. And because the entire process is online, there is no branch to drive to and no appointment to schedule. That makes it especially convenient if you don’t live near a club office, you’re short on time, or you’ve realised at the last minute that you need an IDP before a trip.
Switching to the online route is straightforward — here’s the full process:
International DL offers three options so you only pay for what your trip needs:
Every plan is backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee. Your International Driving Permit is a certified translation that you carry together with your valid national license — it never replaces it.
The International Driving Permit you get from International DL serves the same purpose travelers expect from an auto-club IDP: it is a certified translation of your national license, presented in multiple languages and recognized in 150+ countries under the 1949 Geneva and 1968 Vienna conventions. You carry it together with your national license, exactly as you would with any IDP. The difference is purely in how you obtain it — online, in minutes, rather than in person.
Acceptance of an IDP comes from the international conventions it is based on, not from the brand on the cover. International DL permits are accepted by rental agencies and authorities across Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa and Oceania. As with every IDP, final acceptance is always subject to local law in your destination, and your national license must remain valid.
For many travelers the choice comes down to convenience and speed. International DL is available 24/7, issues your digital permit typically within 15–30 minutes of approval, handles your documents over a secure connection, and backs every order with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you’d rather not spend an afternoon at a club office, it’s a simple, recognized alternative.
