How to go through the procedures for driving in Italy with a Chinese driver s license?

**Qyer Forum: Italy has a law that clearly stipulates that you can drive in Italy for one year with an international driver's license, but there is no detailed explanation of the international driver's license in the legal provisions, I sent an email to the Italian transportation department to inquire before taking the driver's license, and they replied to me that the driver's license issued by the world's traffic contracting states is called an international driver's license after translation and notarization, and China is not among the contracting parties at present. Therefore, strictly speaking, even if a Chinese driver's license is translated and notarized, it is not an international driver's license in the true sense.

But in reality, there is no big problem driving in Italy with a translation of a Chinese driver's license, because most police officers do not know which countries are traffic contracting parties, but the premise is that there can be no accidents, otherwise once the judicial process is entered, the driver with a Chinese driver's license will be judged to be driving without a license, and the nature will be upgraded, and this is a real case. Therefore, it is recommended that friends who hold a Chinese driver's license to drive in Italy must pay great attention to safety, for example, give way when entering the traffic island, give way in the inverted triangle, and give way on the sidewalk, and must not be taken lightly. Here is another step forward in the process of the Chinese driver's license being recognized in Italian society from being recognized to not being recognized:

1, absolute recognition period: until more than 10 years ago, Italy is fully recognized Chinese driver's license, there is no specific legal basis I don't know, but I know a lot of old overseas Chinese over 40 years old to catch up with the good time, when I took the Chinese driver's license directly replaced the Italian driver's license, I know a friend in 20 years ago to change the license, the Chinese C license was replaced by the Italian C license, that is, the domestic car license can be driven here, it can be seen that some departments in Italy are careless to what extent, The driving level has been adjusted entirely. 2. Half-believing period:

Later, with the flood of domestic driver's licenses, Italy is not allowed to replace directly, but for a long time it is still the default use of Chinese driver's licenses in Italy, once a friend told me that his friend casually took a Chinese student ID to drive in Italy, and was found by the police to be mixed up many times. But then there was an accident and a lot of lawsuits. 3. The period of no trust:

That's the current situation I talked about above. It is bold to predict that the next step may be a period of no trust. The last few times I went out in a local Chinese car, I was scared into a cold sweat, and the speed and courage of it made me tremble.

They had an Italian driver's license, which I suspected might be fake, because this kind of driving mentality and habit will not pass the test at all. Later, after a careful chat, I learned that they bought a driver's license from a city in southern Sicily, as long as 3k euros, all the procedures are legal, as far as I know, many cities over there are indeed not a small number of party forces, and it is not difficult to make money.

If you want to drive abroad, you only need to go to the notary office in advance to get a driver's license notarized.

The notarization procedure is very simple, as long as the applicant submits the ID card, household registration book and driver's license, it generally takes about a week, and the fee is between 200 yuan and 500 yuan depending on the country and language. It should be reminded that if the validity period of the driver's license is about to expire, it is best to renew the driver's license in China before going for notarization to save unnecessary trouble.

Holders of Chinese driver's licenses, including Italian citizens and citizens of other countries who have lived in China for a long time, who have entered Italy for a short period of time or who have lived in Italy for less than one year, who hold a Chinese driver's license and an international driver's license, or who have a Chinese driver's license and an Italian translation from the official party, can drive a vehicle in Italy according to the permitted driving type specified in the original driver's license.

The Italian Ministry of the Interior's Traffic Management Agency, the Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, and the Italian Embassy and Consulates in China jointly issued a notice explaining the administrative measures for the use of driver's licenses for Chinese citizens and citizens of other countries to enter Italy for a short period of time with Chinese driver's licenses.

The official Italian translation of the Chinese driver's license is a legalized document of the Italian Embassy or Consulate in China, and the document does not need to be notarized. To apply for the Italian translation and authentication of a Chinese driver's license, you need to submit an application at the Italian Embassy or Consulate in China, and no appointment is required. Hours of operation are Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

A Chinese driver's license cannot be used in Italy, and the Chinese driver's license is applicable to the mainland of the People's Republic of China.

Persons driving civil motor vehicles on the road must apply for a motor vehicle driving license in accordance with the "Measures of the People's Republic of China for the Administration of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses". The motor vehicle driver's license is valid nationwide.

The motor vehicle driver's license records the holder's ID number, name, gender, date of birth, long-term address, nationality, quasi-driving (study) model code, date of initial license, validity period and management record, and has the seal of the issuing authority, file number and the holder's **. The style of the motor vehicle driver's license shall be prescribed by the Ministry of Public Security.

The train from Florence to Venice is easy and self-driving is not recommended.

Renting a car translation is not a legal document in Italy, but some rental car companies, such as Sixt, Hertz, etc., don't matter.

Florence's Annis did not admit it.

Translation is not the same thing as certification. Figure out which one you need. The translation does not necessarily need to be done at the embassy, but the certification needs to be done at the embassy, and you can refer to the embassy official ** for details.

Recently, I was applying for a driver's license certification, which means that I need to go to the consulate to get it certified. With a translation of the driver's license (the kind that rents a car for free) and the original driver's license, you can pick up the car at most car rental companies, depending on the car rental company. Successfully picking up the car with the above two information does not mean that you are legally self-driving in Italy, and at present, legal self-driving in Italy is either an international driver's license, or a driver's license certification from the embassy plus a domestic driver's license.

Of course, at present, many self-driving travelers take the risk (only with the translation and driver's license) in Italy to drive back smoothly, and there is no unhappiness, if you encounter the local traffic police to check your documents, and you compete, it will be more troublesome, so whether to go to the embassy for certification, on their own consideration. The train from Florence to Venice is very convenient, the express train takes more than two hours, and the lowest price to buy in advance is one person. You can enjoy the towns along the way by car, but you can't drive into the main island of Venice by car.

The kind you're talking about is dual authentication. Depending on the specific requirements of the visa application center, if it is authenticated alone, it does not need to be authenticated by the embassy. From Florence to Venice, the train is convenient and fast, if you drive, it is not easy to park on the island, or you can only live outside.

Florence to Venice If you don't go to the middle of the city town is recommended to take a train, if you arrange a woodshed along the way, it is definitely convenient to drive.

Italy, located in the southern part of Europe, is a highly developed democratic republic. Major cities include the capital Rome, Milan, Venice and Florence. It is an important member of the North Atlantic Treaty, the European Union, and Schengen.

Before getting into the car, no matter where you are in the vehicle, please be sure to walk around the front of the car from the right side of the car to the cab door, first observe whether there are obstacles on the road in front of the car, and then observe whether there is an incoming car behind the car, ensure safety, open the door and get in the car.

2. Gently close the car door, hand the pre-prepared ID card to the examiner with both hands, and introduce yourself with a rough smile"Hello examiner, I am a candidate and this is my ID. "

3. Try to be as proficient as possible to quickly adjust the seat, the left and right 3 rear mirrors, fasten the seat belt, observe the instrument, if the instrument is normal, smile and ask the examiner for advice"Report to the examiner, the appearance is normal, can I start? "

4. After getting permission, step on the clutch, hang 1st gear, hit the left turn signal, press the horn, observe the rearview mirror, confirm the safety, release the clutch to semi-linkage, and let go of the handbrake with the right hand at the same time (which can effectively prevent the uphill start from slipping), and start smoothly.

5. After a smooth start, don't be in a hurry to change lanes to the left immediately, continue to go straight, turn off the left turn signal at the same time, step on the clutch, shift to 2nd gear (you can always use 1st gear to climb to the top of the slope and then shift gears when starting on a steep slope), slow down and loosen the clutch, and give a little throttle with your right foot at the same time to prevent rushing or stalling. Refuel and keep 2nd gear forward, observe that the speedometer reaches more than 30 kilometers or the engine speed exceeds 2000, shift to 3rd gear, keep driving at 30 speeds, if the examiner does not ask for acceleration, please do not show off your skills in front of him and drive more than 60 kilometers, that will only make him feel that you like to drive fast and is not safe. Don't forget to look in the rearview mirror every 10 seconds or so while you're on the road.

6. When heard"Pull over"After the command of Zhizhen, you are very close to success, don't panic, the first reaction is to hit the right turn signal, and then make an obvious deflection action to look at the right rearview mirror, if there is no vehicle behind the right, please hit the direction to the right, and at the same time step on the brake, the left foot clutch is also stepped on, with the feeling that you usually stop at a fixed point so that the car is 30cm away from the right curb, return to the right direction, and park the car on the side of the road.

7. After the vehicle stops, pull the handbrake, dial back to neutral, release the clutch brake with both feet, turn off the right turn signal, loosen the seat belt, and say to the examiner"Thank you, examiner"Then look in the left mirror to make sure there is no car coming from behind, open the door, and get out of the car. After getting out of the car, gently close the door with both hands and say again"Thank you, examiner"。

Summary: The road test is a human test, the human factor is very important, a humble attitude and politeness can make up for your lack of skills, and even save your ending, be polite to the examiner, and even stammer, believe me is good; The road test is a test action, not a test speed, so you must think about it according to the procedure, and do the action that should be done instead of the rock draft to pursue hanging up 5 gears to rush to 100 yards.
