An international driving license sample
The Ministry of Transport said those seeking an international license should apply to the Directorate for Roads of Vietnam or the local departments of transport, enclosing their original driving licenses issued by Vietnam as well as passports and valid residence permits.
Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City are the first two cities to pilot the project.
Under the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic, which Vietnam acceded to on August 20, there are no additional requirements for holders of international driving licenses when they use either right or left hand drive cars. But drivers should be aware of the road traffic laws in the country they intend to visit.
