How to Apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in Sri Lanka
Who Needs One – Strictly Legally Speaking?
- Any foreign driving license holder who does not hold an International Driving Permit (IDP).
- Even if you have an IDP, you will still need additional validation if your IDP is issued by a non-member state of the Vienna Convention.
But in Common Practice
Foreign visitors with an IDP often prefer to get their permit endorsed by the Automobile Association of Ceylon (AA), to complement and validate their IDP for use in Sri Lanka.
