Can I drive in Sri Lanka as a foreigner?
Yes, you can! But to drive legally in Sri Lanka, you must have:
- A valid International Driving Permit (IDP)
A Recognition Permit issued by either:
- The Automobile Association of Ceylon (AAC) or
- The Department of Motor Traffic (DMT)
Even if your driver’s license is in English, the Recognition Permit is still legally required.
What is a Recognition Permit and where do I get it?
A Recognition Permit is a local validation of your international driving permit or foreign license. You can obtain it from:
