Frequently Asked Questions about International Driving Permits

Do I need an International Driving Permit for Spain?

It is advisable to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) when traveling to Spain from another country. While many speak English and numerous tourists visit, it is not guaranteed that law enforcement officers speak fluent English.

An IDP facilitates communication and can be useful for border crossings and car rentals, as many rental companies require an IDP.

How do I obtain an International Driving Permit?

You can apply for an IDP online through International Travel Permits. Select a package, fill in the details, and upon approval, the digital version will be available within a few hours.

An IDP is convenient for business travelers and offers the freedom of having your own car, which can be more efficient than using public transportation.

Can I use my American driver’s license in Spain?

Driving with an American driver’s license is permitted in Spain, provided you have an IDP.

Do I have to take a written test for an International Driving Permit?

It is not necessary to take Spanish driving exams to obtain an IDP.
