International driving permits: don't get scammed!
AAA and the U.S. Department of State are aware that many companies and individuals, especially on the internet, are fraudulently selling what they claim to be valid International Driving Permits (IDPs). In fact, there are only two organizations in the USA that are authorized by the government to provide these documents. One is AAA and the other is the American Automobile Touring Alliance (AATA).
The permits sold by other companies—some of which cost up to $100—are fake and are not recognized by any nation. More importantly, providing your personal information to these fraudulent companies may place you at risk of identity theft.
The permit costs $15 and can be issued on the spot at a AAA office by filling out an application form and providing two passport photos and your valid U.S. driver's license.
