Foreigners are allowed to drive from 3 to 6 months with a foreign driving license beginning on the date they entered the U.S. After this, a foreign license won't work. To continue driving, you must obtain an IDP. But the U.S. doesn't issue IDPs to short-term visitors — you can only get this from your home country.

Depending on the U.S. states you will visit, you may need an International Driving Permit (IDP) as well as a driving permit from your country. If you are a citizen of another country and are living permanently in the U.S., you may be able to get a regular state driver's license.
