Driving in Liechtenstein with a foreign licence
Bring an IDP
Rental desks and local authorities in Liechtenstein commonly ask foreign drivers to carry an IDP alongside their national licence. This Alpine principality drives on the right and shares Switzerland's strict rules; non-EU visitors should carry an IDP, and a Swiss motorway vignette applies on through routes.
