Hi, I am going to the Philippines in a couple months. Can I use my Qatar's driver's license to drive in the Philippines? I am planning to renew my old Phil. license but it might take a few days. I am planning to make an inquiry in the Phil. but I have a feeling that somebody here knows the answer to my question. Thank you very much in advance.

in my opinion yes you can drive, even tourists without Philippine drivers license can at least for a week upon arrival. renewal of license now is much faster, just go to any LTO on malls like SM Sn.fernando pampanga, they have kiosk just for renewals, what i know you can get it after an hour or two.

goodluck

You have to get International Driver's Lisence for you to use your Qatar's driving lisence in the Philippines.

You don't have to renew your old Philippine driver's lisence.

Call 4344457 for more details.
