Dear Qorax,

Thanks for the quick response as always.

REMEMBER though -- that letter should be typed with seal & stamp of the RTO. It should also carry your pp sized pic... it shouldn't be on 'cyclostyled' paper -- rather on a Letter Hd of the RTO.

Why am I writing this?
B'coz member Binny here came with excatly that type of doc & his A/Letter wasn't accepted... Ndls-Tilak Nagar RTO.

Most RTOs would have it on their system... Dubai RTA has [my case].
------------------------------------------------------------------
It's just a descriptive letter about our D/L & a statement that 'the dvr has no adverse reports on their system, didn't meet with any traffic violation/s from xyz to xyz dates'.

Qorax

Dear Qorax,

How about Abu Dhabi Traffic? Do they issue this kind of letter? I am aware that Dubai and Abu dhabi have different system. Can you send me a sample of the letter so I can show it to them if you dont mind?

Thank you!

1. That RTO 'authentication letter' is not just 'useful' - it's a MUST, if u desire to get the G1 or G D/L.
2. No amount of Ins. Letters is going to help u here, unless its one from the US.

Thanks very much qorax for your prompt response....

Welcome Aboard Ma'am !

But, why couldn't u get that A/Letter in Eng? AFAIK all MTOs could draft those letters in Eng as well. anyway, take it to the Indian consulate here & get it translated... they'd put their seal & sign it... that'd suffice for DriveTestCanada.

For imdt jobs there r many placement consultants here [some pretty good] who could place u in a jiffy. If u could meet-up in any of our get-togethers u could meet one of them as well, who could help u with an imdt placement. Unfortunately I'm leaving for Dubai this month [30/3/11]... so our next meet would be sometime in May-11.

Good luck!

Thanks Qorax...

Yes I should have done this in India also but my DL was from Uttar Pradesh and I used to live in Delhi. Due to some circumstances it was not possible for me to get its translation from there. And in Delhi I was not known about these things.

Anyways I would go to Indian Consulate and wud take its translation. May I know how much time wud it take.

Also I would really appreciate if I would be part of any of your meetings. I am really waiting for that. By the time you come back from Dubai, if you can provide me any of the Consultants who can guide me in getting immediate jobs here.  I would be thankful to you.

Thanks again for everything.

Dear Qorax,

If I obtain an International Drivers License here in Abu Dhabi, would I be able to drive a car when I go back to Ontario and how many days I am able to use this license? Can I drive right away or there is a process that I have to go to the MTO to get a permission.

Please advise as I am planning to get an IDL, is it really worth to get one?

Thank you!

1. U can start driving from the a/port itself, after landing.
2. No addnl procedures required.
3. Remember, it's valid for 60 days from your landing [in Ontario].
4. And u can drive only a rental car.

Qorax,

Do I need both the International Driving license & a letter of authentication to convert my Indian D/L to G2 license?

Yes, for 2 to 3 months depending on which province you are going to.  After that, you need a Canadian license.   

Can I use my full uk driving license in Canada
