Can I drive in the UK on an international licence as a visitor?

This article is for people visiting the UK temporarily who want to know if they can use their international driving licence.

Just visiting the UK?

If you're in the UK for a short visit, you can drive on your international licence for the entire length of your stay — as long as it’s no longer than 12 months.
