Driving licences UK national - Nepal to the UK
Hi,
I am planning on going to Nepal purchasing a Royal Enfield and riding it back to the UK.
I have some questions about licences for this trip.
I have learnt that a Internatoinal Driving permit is required to purchase and ride a motobike in Nepal.
In the UK is the only way to recieve a International driving permit by means of taking a driving test in a car then paying the fee for the Internationl driving permit ? - is there no way I can take a motocycle A1 for motocycles up to 33 bhp (of which the Enfield 500cc is hadily 33bhp). Then apply for a IDP ?
If I have to do a driving test in a car it seems somewhat a waste of a lot of money for driving around a motobike (allbeit good theory knowledge.).
Also if it is true that a car licence needs to be held in order for a IDP, does this mean I will have to fork out as well for a A1 licence - to ride back from Nepal in the UK ?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Happy travelling,
David.
