According to the Automobile and Touring Club of the UAE, United Arab Emirates (UAE) citizens can obtain an international driving licence (IDL) within 30 minutes after applying (ATCUAE).

The IDL, according to ATCUAE, allows drivers to legally operate their vehicles abroad without having to take additional exams or submit additional applications.

According to the ATCUAE, IDL has a one-year validity period, and its main benefit is that it enables law enforcement authorities (LEAs) in other nations to read a translation of a person’s licence in that country’s native tongue. Holders of IDLs may use them in numerous nations as long as they are valid.

How to Apply

UAE residents can get the IDL within 30 minutes by visiting ATCUAE offices or Emirates Post Offices in UAE. ATCUAE applicants can also apply online, but it takes 5 working days for the license to be delivered to one’s address.

Meanwhile, Dubai residents can apply for an IDL with just a 5-minute processing time on the Roads and Transport Authority website.

Mandatory Documents
