Driving in Vietnam: licence and road rules
What you need to rent a car and drive here as a visitor. Rules change — check with your rental company before the trip.
You need an International Driving Permit together with your EU/EEA licence.
You need an International Driving Permit together with your UK licence.
A US licence and IDP are not enough — a local temporary driving permit is required.
National licences are not valid alone; you need a 1968-format IDP together with the licence. US IDPs are 1949-format, which Vietnam does not recognise, so a Vietnamese licence is needed. Self-drive rentals are rare, and a car with a driver is the norm.
Expressways and BOT roads use barrier-free electronic tolling (ETC: VETC/ePass); cars must have a tag, and rental cars normally do.
Tip: Traffic is dominated by motorbikes that flow around you: drive slowly and predictably, and use the horn sparingly as a warning. Hiring a car with a driver is cheap and usually wiser.
