Getting a Driver's License in Liechtenstein
Summary: Here's a primer on how to get your driver's license in Liechtenstein.
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 Liechtenstein.
In Liechtenstein, a foreigner can legally drive if they have a valid international driving permit (IDP) along with their valid national driving license. The IDP is a translation of the national driving license and it must be obtained in the driver's home country before they travel to Liechtenstein. The driver must also be at least 18 years old to drive a car or a motorcycle over 125cc. For motorcycles under 125cc, the minimum age is 16.
It's important to note that Liechtenstein is a very small country, so there are no different requirements based on the city, state, or region. The same rules apply throughout the entire country. However, drivers should be aware that Liechtenstein has strict drink-driving laws, with a legal limit of 0.05% blood alcohol content. Speed limits also vary depending on the type of road, so drivers should always pay attention to road signs.
