International Driving Permit

If you plan to drive a vehicle when traveling outside Canada and the U.S., you might want to consider getting an International Driving Permit. It can be obtained within Canada from the CAA. You do not have to be a CAA member to use this service. Go to their site for details.

You will need to provide a photocopy of your current provincial driver's license and two passport quality photos. You also need to provide your departure date from Canada. The permit is valid for 1 year from date of issue.

Not all countries in Europe require an IDP, but here is a list (as of July 1, 2023) of those who do: Austria, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Romania, Slovenia and Spain.
