Does the US recognize an IDP?
Does the US recognize an IDP? You may drive a car in the United States for one year using an International Driver's Permit (IDP) and a driver's license from your home country.
Do I need an IDP to hire a car in USA?
If the driver's license is in a language other than English, and the rental is in the United States, an International Driver's Permit is recommended. In all cases, a valid driver's license issued from your home country must be provided, whether or not you possess an International Driver's Permit.
