Cómo obtener un Permiso Internacional de Conducir real
No emitimos IDP — nadie en línea lo hace legítimamente, salvo los organismos autorizados por tu gobierno. Aquí tienes exactamente a dónde ir en el país de tu licencia.
Antes que nada: la prueba de la estafa
Only an authorised, government-appointed body can issue an official International Driving Permit — be cautious of any site claiming otherwise. World Driving Permit provides certified licence translations with QR verification: a companion to your licence, never a replacement for it or for an official IDP. Tres señales de alerta: (1) el sitio no es el emisor autorizado de tu país, (2) ofrece "licencias" de varios años o "permisos" digitales instantáneos, (3) cobra mucho más que la tarifa real de ~$20–40. Los IDP reales son folletos de papel emitidos en tu país, antes de viajar.
Qué llevas
Tu licencia nacional válida, fotos de pasaporte y una pequeña tarifa. El IDP solo certifica la licencia que ya posees.
Cuánto cuesta
Normalmente el equivalente a $10–40. Si te cotizan más, probablemente no estés ante un emisor autorizado.
Cuánto tarda
A menudo el mismo día en persona; las rutas postales tardan de días a semanas. Planifica antes de tu viaje — la mayoría de los países no emiten IDP a los visitantes.
Emisores autorizados por país de la licencia
Orientación indicativa — las tarifas y los procesos cambian. Requirements vary by country. Carry your translation together with your original driving licence and passport; some countries require an official IDP issued by an authorised body in your country of licence.
