==Need for the Document==<br />
International Driving Permits (IDP's) are recommended when you intend driving overseas.<br />
<br />
In Australia, the Government appointed the Australian Automobile Association (AAA) as the only authority to issue permits. In Victoria, the RACV, as a constituent member of the AAA, is authorized to issue IDP's through its RACV shops.<br />
<br />
An IDP is a widely recognized document and is useful for photo identification purposes. You may also need one to rent a car overseas.<br />
