One of the most common questions from international travellers looking for car rental in Baku is whether they can drive in Azerbaijan with their national driving licence or if an International Driving Permit (IDP) is required.
The good news is that visitors from India, the United Kingdom, European countries, Russia and many other countries can generally drive in Azerbaijan with a valid national driving licence, provided it meets the applicable requirements.

❓ Do you need an International Driving Permit in Azerbaijan?
An International Driving Permit in Azerbaijan is not automatically required for every foreign visitor. The requirement can depend on the format, validity and language of your national driving licence. If your licence is difficult to understand or verify, an IDP can provide additional convenience.
