Family menbers use international driver's license

[born2farm 0]

I am GC holder and my parents and sisters come to visit me while they are on vacation every year. They usually stay for few months and before I always drove them around. I know they can use international driver's license to be able to drive here. Does anyone know how long they can drive with their international driver's license here? I live in state of indiana.

thanks

The international drivers license is just a translation of their countries driving license.... you need to check the DMV for your state about validity of drivers licenses from foreign countries...

Foreign Visitors Driving in the U.S.

Quick facts for foreign visitors about driving in the United States

1. An international driver's license must be obtained from your home country. This permit only verifies that you hold a valid license in your home country. It is your foreign driver's license that allows you to drive in the United States. Contact the authorities in your home country to get an international driving permit, as the United States does NOT issue international driver's licenses to foreign visitors.

It depends on Indiana's rule. Best to check their website how long they can elgally drive on their license - as stated, the international license doesn't give them any rights since it's just a translation to make it easier on local law enforcement.

Hi, Im Colombian and I live here in Indiana too. I drove for one year with my international drivers licence and now I just got my Indiana licence. They will be ok. They have to carry the international with the drivers licence issued in their country.

I don't know where they come from, I'm a french citizen and it's written on my international driving licence that i can use it for 3 years.

You have to check the date on the international driving licence of your family and also check the rules of Indiana, according to me.

Good luck

Depends on the state.

My father drove with his Russian license and a translation (aka "international drivers license") when he visited me last year in California - it is definitely allowed if you're here temporary (for less than a year, as far as I recall).
