Summary: Here's a primer on how to get your driver's license in Kiribati.

Sometimes when you're new to a country a task like getting your driver's license can make you feel like you're 16 years old again trying to pass your driver's test. Here's an overview of the process of getting your driver's license in Kiribati.

In Kiribati, a foreigner is allowed to drive if they possess a valid International Driving Permit (IDP) along with their valid home country's driving license. The IDP must be obtained in the driver's home country before traveling to Kiribati. It's also important to note that driving in Kiribati is on the left side of the road. As Kiribati is a small island nation, the driving regulations do not vary by city, state, or region. All drivers, regardless of their location within the country, are expected to adhere to the same rules and regulations.
