I am an Indian and has an Indian government issued Driving License; I think, for now, I cannot drive in Poland and need an IDP; But once Poland joins Schengen by Dec 21 or so, will the driving rules become similar to Schengen states? I have driven in France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg and Italy with my Indian Driving license;
Am not sure Poland will have the same driving restrictions even after becoming Schengen;
Anyone has any idea of this? Or will
There is no separate test conducted to issue an IDP; It is nothing but a translation to international format and in English so it can be used abroad; In Schengen States, I still had my insurance working, if purchased; So, it is perfectly safe to drive with indian license in such european countires; I know even in Quebec State and in Toronto, I am allowed to drive for 6 months with no need for IDP;
I was interested to know whather I need an IDP in January when Poland is a Schengen state; You know, there is some bureacracy and time taken to get IDP in India; That is my problem;
