I made payment for 2 permits, myself and my husband. The team reached out to confirm that the double payment was not a mistake. I was impressed, as they reached out promptly and immediately I clarified I received electronic copy of the permit. The hard copy also arrived on time. kudos to the team for exceptional service delivery.

I needed 2 translations. IDA issued twice the same translation instead of one for me and one for my wife. At the end it was addressed but it delayed our departure at the camper rental by 2 hours.
International Driving Authority 回复2025-02-04
Hi, Lucas! We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused. Please note that if multiple applications were submitted using the same device or payment method, our system captured it as being duplicated the reason why you have received your IDP twice instead of the other one for your wife.
However, we appreciate your feedback and will use it to improve our process and avoid similar issues in the future. We understand how frustrating delays can be, especially when traveling, and we regret any disruption this may have caused.
If there's anything else we can do to assist you, please don't hesitate to reach out. We truly appreciate your patience and for bringing this to our attention. Safe travels!

So far, no confirmation of my order - this makes me worried: is this a scam website ? The concept is good but there should be an immediate order confirmation with my name clearly shown.

Quick service, but needs more explanation - could be a scam
I got the permit within a few hours. However, the site needs more explanation of what the "IDA" is. It seems like it might be a scam, like several other sites, since it's so easy to get the permit. I guess I'll find out when I try to use it in Indonesia, which apparently requires it to rent cars.
International Driving Authority 回复2025-01-06

I had to fill out my info a few times because it times out, and I got charged an extra $29 for expedited digital IDP even though I unchecked it, but I did get what I needed so far. We’ll see how the physical card fares - when that comes. Overall simple and efficient despite the couple of issues I had. To be fair, I did it all on a mobile device, which probably didn’t help.
International Driving Authority 回复2024-12-30
Thank you for sharing your experience! 🌟 We’re glad you found the process simple and efficient despite the challenges you faced.
Regarding the expedited digital IDP charge, it should not apply if you unchecked it. If there is an error, please reach out to our support team, and we’ll be happy to assist further. We’re continuously working to improve mobile functionality and appreciate your patience.
We hope your physical card arrives smoothly and meets your expectations. Thank you for choosing our service, Cristina! 🚗✨
The customer service is completely incapable of attending to customer needs. I have paid for express shipment but have never received my license. It's now more than 1 week I should have received it and the only thing they were able to suggest, was to get in contact with the shipping company. Unfortunately the numbers they provide for reaching them out are not functioning and they are not providing any other valid solution to solve the problem.
International Driving Authority 回复2025-01-01
Thank you for sharing your concerns Alessandro. Upon reviewing the delivery details, we found that the courier attempted to deliver your package, but no one was available to receive it as they had to confirm the phone number before sending out to delivery, resulting in a failed delivery. We have immediately requested the courier to make another attempt, and the package was successfully delivered on December 24.
We hope you’ve now received your IDP and that it meets your expectations. If there’s anything else we can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Wishing you a happy New Year filled with joy and safe travels! 🙏 🌎
Very useful service - specially when you need last minute ! I have to say the phone uploads never worked but the same uploads from my computer later on worked. Also, the pricing for digital automatically added an “urgent” charge of 29 on top of the 60 + for the digital copy - which I thought was a bit strange. I realize I did not have a choice and went ahead with it. I wish the service was a bit more transparent from the beginning. Also, the servers need more horsepower so that they don’t repeatedly time out. This service will be used by people only during emergencies at car rentals where the WiFi is not expected to be good. However, in summary, thankful for this service since I was able to get my IDP to eventually
International Driving Authority 回复2024-12-30
Thank you for your detailed review and for bringing this to our attention, Manash! 🌟 We’re glad the service was ultimately helpful in securing your IDP, even with the challenges you faced.
We’d like to clarify that the "urgent" option is a system default however, it can be removed before proceeding with the payment. We’re sorry if this wasn’t more apparent during your experience and will work on making this process clearer.
We also appreciate your feedback on system performance and transparency—this helps us improve. Thank you for choosing our service, and we’re grateful we could assist during your time of need! 🚗✨
BE CAREFUL! This is a scam company. I got a Driver License with I.D.A 2 years ago and now they say that they are not that Company, but they say they are International Driving Authority. So, this is a scam 100%. Please, don’t share your data here.

Well, That is just "translation" of your national license. And this "translation" has the same format as official IDP.
I guess the purpose of it is to trick police man because it looks like IDP.
So your driving will be still illegal with that document.

Package was lost and never delivered on time for our trip despite the address being correct. We asked to deliver it anyway so we can have it when we return home. We never received it and found out it was never sent. We decided to give it a chance and asked to resend. They agreed and a couple of days later we received an email informing they decided not to resend, and that will refund the costs. All actions taken were based on their assumptions and not our needs or information provided.
International Driving Authority 回复2024-12-13
We’re truly sorry to hear about the challenges you faced, John! It’s disappointing to know that the package was not delivered as expected and that the resolution process did not align with your needs. However, please be informed that we don't usually issue a refund if the main reason is the package's failed delivery. The only time that we consider issuing a refund for failed delivery orders is when we tried to contact our customers multiple times if reshipment is needed but we never received any response🌍. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us identify where improvements are needed to ensure a smoother and more customer-focused experience.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused during this process and appreciate your patience. If there’s anything further we can do to address your concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. 🙏
