What is an International Driving Permit (IDP)?

An International Driving Permit (IDP) is a document that allows you to drive in foreign countries when used alongside your valid UK driving licence. It is an official translation of your driving licence and is recognised in over 140 countries worldwide.

The IDP does not replace your driving licence - you must carry both documents together when driving abroad.

At Meezan Travel and Courier, we provide an IDP Application & Verification Service for £29.99, which includes application verification, photo printing, processing and tracked home delivery to the address on your UK driving licence.

What are your office opening hours?

Our office opening hours are:

Monday - Friday 9:30 AM - 5:30 PM

What to do if your International Driving Permit is not delivered?

Please have your application details ready when contacting us so we can assist you as quickly as possible.

Is there any tracking for the International Driving Permit?
Yes
