Documents used along the form

When applying for an Aaa International Driving Permit (IDP), several other documents may be required to ensure a smooth application process. These documents help verify your identity and driving qualifications. Below is a list of commonly used forms and documents that accompany the IDP application.

Driver's License: A valid driver's license from your home country is essential. It serves as proof of your driving eligibility and must be presented alongside the IDP application.
Passport-sized Photograph: A recent passport-sized photo is typically required. This photo should meet specific size and quality standards, as it will be affixed to your IDP.
Proof of Residency: Documents such as utility bills or bank statements can be used to establish your current address. This information helps confirm your identity and residency status.
Application Fee: Payment for the application fee is necessary. This fee varies depending on the issuing agency and can usually be paid via check or credit card.
Completed Application Form: The IDP application form itself must be filled out accurately. Ensure all required fields are completed to avoid delays in processing.
Medical Certificate: Some jurisdictions may require a medical certificate to confirm that you are fit to drive. This document should be issued by a licensed medical professional.
Translation of License: If your driver's license is not in English, you may need a certified translation. This ensures that officials can easily read and verify your driving credentials.
Identification Card: A government-issued ID, such as a passport or state ID, may be requested to further verify your identity during the application process.

Gathering these documents ahead of time can streamline your application for an Aaa International Driving Permit. Being well-prepared ensures you can hit the road with confidence, no matter where your travels take you.
