Visiting the UAE and not sure if your driving license is valid for driving in the country?

One of the most distinctive features of UAE life is the driving experience. For its residents as well as tourists. You get access to world-class road infrastructure across the well-connected, glittering emirates. However, as a tourist, your home country’s driving license might not be valid if your country is not part of the list above. In that case, you will need an international driving permit which must be secured from your home country.

You can then rent and drive a car legally in the UAE, provided you are here on a valid tourist visa. And if you’re in the need of a car, you know what to do – Arslan Rent a Car
To summarize, visitors from the GCC, US, UK, Canada, Europe and certain other countries can drive with their home country driving license without the need of an International Driving Permit (IDP). you have a valid driving license to get the most exhilarating experience.
