Drivers License

Driver's License requirements:
*Avis Singapore only accepts electronic licences for Singaporean Driver Licence holders. All other foreign electronic Licence holders will be required to present their physical licence card.

  • A valid Singapore driving license must be held for at least 12 months for Singapore citizens, Permanent Residence and foreigners who are residing in Singapore for more than 12 months.
  • Foreigners who reside in Singapore for less than 12 months must possess a valid foreign license from the country of residence and International Driving Permit (IDP).
  • If an IDP is not available, an official translation of foreign license in English is required. Information can be found here:
  • Drivers from ASEAN member countries only need to possess a valid driving license issued by the relevant driving license to drive in Singapore without IDP.


Identification (ID) Requirements:

Singaporean residents/long term visa holders must provide valid ID document to supplement their drivers’ licence. Electronic documents are accepted but only if they can be verified through SINGPASS. Photos of ID are not accepted. Types of documents:

  • NRIC or
  • Long Term Visa/Pass (eg Work/Special/Employment pass)


Foreign clients should carry all physical ID documents with them as electronic documents from other countries cannot be validated, and therefore not accepted, in Singapore. In these instances, a passport, driving licence and international driving permit (IDP) (where applicable) must be presented.

IDP's are to be applied for, and received, prior to check-out. In those cases where this was not possible and you arrive in Singapore, you may obtain a translation from the relevant Embassy, High Commission, or any local registered translation companies in Singapore if your Embassy or High Commission does not provide the service.

 

An International Driving Permit (IDP) serves only as a translation of a drivers existing license, and by itself is not acceptable for vehicle rental.

Note: Some credit cards provide insurance coverage, with certain limitations, as a benefit of using the card to rent vehicles.  The customer is advised to contact the card issuer before the rental.  Any waiver must be discussed directly with the location upon arrival.
