Does InterRent require an IDP in Uzbekistan?
InterRent in Uzbekistan: the policy in plain terms
Requires an IDP for non-EU and non-Roman-alphabet licences across its European locations. Europcar's value brand for leisure travellers in Europe.
Uzbekistan drives on the right under the 1968 Vienna Convention; an IDP is advised to translate non-Latin-script licences for desks and police.
In Uzbekistan specifically, uzbekistan legally requires foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit with their national licence, so InterRent will ask for it at the counter. Tashkent desks ask for an IDP with non-Latin-script licences.
InterRent runs a europe network; at its Uzbekistan desks, foreign renters are asked for the 1968 Vienna-format International Driving Permit alongside the original licence. Uzbekistan drives on the right, uses the UZS, and sets a minimum driving age of 18, so an IDP is the document that removes any doubt at the counter.
What to bring to the InterRent counter in Uzbekistan
- Your original national driving licence (the IDP never replaces it).
- Your International Driving Permit in the 1968 Vienna format.
- Your passport and a payment card in the main driver's name.
- Local payment for the UZS deposit; Uzbekistan drives on the right with a young-driver surcharge under 25.
