Important traffic rules in Mali

Mali is a country in West Africa completely landlocked, mainly located in the Sahara and Sahelian regions. The country is predominantly dry and flat, with the Niger River being the main trade and transportation artery flowing through the interior. You will be amazed by Mali’s geographical diversity and rich culture, including dances, music, and architecture. If you plan to travel by car in Mali, it is important to always follow the traffic rules.

Legal driving age is 21 years

In Mali, you must be at least 21 years old to drive a vehicle. Even if you have an International Driving Permit for Mali, you are not allowed to drive if you are under 21 years old, regardless of whether it is in a city or district.

Provide spare tires

While Mali has a decent road and transportation system, certain weather conditions in specific months can impact your journey. The rainy season starts in June and may result in flat tires, so make sure you have spare tires with you.
