Driving in the U.K on a chinese driving license?

Question:
hello, am planning to travel to the U.K soon and my plan is to rent a car there, just more fun. My problem is: I can find nowhere to apply for an international driving permit to use together with my chinese driving license. so I wonder if i can drive just with my chinese driving license in the U.K? thanks a million.

If you have a drivers licence from any country you should be able to drive in another (if not they won't rent you a car anyway). But if you plan to stay in the country for any length of time, that's different.

I would suggest however that you review the local driving rules since they will have some differences and you don't want to cause an accident or anything like that.

According to the DVLA website it looks like you can drive on your own licence for up to 12 months - it doesn't say you have to have an International Driving Permit - maybe send them an email to check, see link:

Definitely check the rules & regulations of the car rental companies though, they have strict guidlines & might require an intl permit/translation of your licence. I would be a shame to get here & find out no-one will give you a car.
