How to get an International Driving Permit in Arizona

In short
Yes, in any country that requires an IDP for foreign drivers — your Arizona license alone is not enough there. The IDP is a translation of your Arizona license, carried together with it. Arizona license holders need an IDP in any country that demands one for foreign drivers; the booklet is carried alongside the Arizona license.

From Phoenix and Mesa down to Tucson, Arizona drivers head into Mexico constantly — and Mexico requires an IDP for US license holders. Spain, another favorite for Arizona travelers, does too. AAA branch coverage in Arizona varies by metro area and has been shrinking, but none of that matters here: your Arizona license works with our online IDP booklet, start to finish. The IDP itself is the multilingual translation of your existing license, issued in the official UN-convention format and carried alongside it.
