What to do if you lose or damage your IDP while abroad?

Emergency Document Situations While Traveling
Losing, having your documents stolen, or physically damaging them while on an international trip is highly stressful for any road traveler. Without an International Driving Permit (IDP) in destinations where it is strictly mandatory, you instantly lose the legal right to operate a vehicle. However, there is no need to panic: modern digital standards allow you to resolve this issue completely remotely, without visiting government offices or consulates.

Step-by-Step Guide: Online IDP Replacement
If you discover that your IDP booklet is missing, you do not need to interrupt your vacation or look for local police stations to file loss reports (unless required by your car rental company for insurance purposes). The entire replacement process is handled via our online service: you simply log onto the website, refill out the order form based on your domestic license still in your possession, and upload a photo. The system processes the application with high priority.

Instant Digital Copy to Keep You Moving
The primary advantage of online reissue is the speed of accessing your credentials. Within minutes of order confirmation, a digital copy of your updated IDP featuring a unique QR code will be sent to your email. You can download it to your smartphone and present it at most modern rental services and standard road checkpoints, allowing you to continue your planned itinerary without long delays.

Printing and Express Global Delivery
The physical printed IDP booklet, fully compliant with UN standards, will be promptly manufactured and handed over to an international express delivery service. We can ship the finished document directly to the country and city where you are currently staying — to your hotel address, apartments, or a courier pickup point. This ensures you receive the original physical IDP booklet directly in your hands anywhere in the world within days.
