Apply online for an International Driving Permit

What do I need to do if I want to drive abroad?

If you hold a driving license issued in Malta or in any EU member state, you may drive in all EU countries, provided that your license is valid and that you only drive the category of vehicles that you are entitled to.

However, if you wish to drive in a non-EU country, that is party to the Geneva Convention on Road Traffic, it is advisable that you obtain an International Driving Permit. This permit is issued for one (1) year from date of issue, on the presentation of a valid license issued either in Malta or in an EU member state.

You will be required to produce a completed application:

  • your identity card
  • two passport-sized photographs

The driving permit is issued against a fee.
