Hi Everyone
Newbie here, so firstly wanted to say Hi and congratulations on an amazing and informative forum.
Have found so much great information so far lingering in the shadows :icon_biggrin:
I am returning to Bali in August for 6 months.At the moment i am not looking at being an "expat" just engaging in some extended holiday time over the next few years on/off and see how things go.
Just wondering if you could possibly clarify a few things for me in relation to motorbike/car licences if you have had any previous experience with it.
I am getting very mixed reports about some aspects of Licences and these are mainly
on "travel" forums as opposed to an "expat" one like this which i think may have a little more life experience in relation to same.
1: If i have an Australian International Drivers Licence can I hire a car in a bali to self drive or would i need a Balinese licence?
2:I havent had the time to get my motorcycle licence here in Australia so would like to get it from the tourist police station.As i will be getting a licence valid in "relevant" country and actually taking a test, will i be covered for insurance purposes?
3: Is it true that you can get your motorcycle licence from the tourist police station at Petitinget now? as opposed to going into Denpasar?
Thanks
