Frequently Asked Question
How to get international driving license in Canada?
You must obtain an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home country before traveling to Canada, as Canada doesn’t issue IDPs to foreign visitors. Indian citizens can apply through the Regional Transport Office (RTO) or use convenient online services like ITCA for streamlined processing. The application requires your valid Indian driving license, passport photos, and appropriate fees, with ITCA offering quick approval within 30 minutes.
How to get IDP in Canada?
If you’re a Canadian resident, you can obtain an IDP through the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) or authorized provincial agencies. For foreign visitors like Indian citizens, you cannot get an IDP while in Canada and must secure one from your home country beforehand. ITCA provides efficient online IDP services for Indians, ensuring you have proper documentation before your Canadian trip.
How to get an international driver’s license in Canada?
International Driving Permits must be obtained from your country of residence before entering Canada. Indian travelers can apply through official RTO channels or utilize ITCA’s digital platform, which offers both hardcopy and printable softcopy options for immediate use. The process involves submitting your domestic license, photos, and fees, with ITCA’s streamlined system making it accessible from anywhere in India.
Can I drive with IDP in Canada?
Yes, you can legally drive in Canada with a valid International Driving Permit along with your original national license for short-term visits. The IDP must be obtained before arrival and is typically valid for the duration specified on the document, usually up to one year. ITCA’s IDP is recognized across countries following UN Conventions, including Canada, making it a reliable choice for Indian travelers.
