Austria resumes recognition of Taiwan-issued driving permit: MOFA
Posted on 2025-10-25 12:28:13
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says people holding Taiwan-issued international driving permits can legally drive in Austria again.
The Austrian transport ministry has updated its administrative regulations to recognize the validity of international driving permits issued in Taiwan after talks between MOFA and Austria's representative office in Taiwan.
Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung welcomed the move, with a spokesman saying that the foreign and transportation ministries will coordinate to promptly restore reciprocal treatment for holders of Austrian-issued international driving permits in Taiwan.
Austria had stopped accepting Taiwan-issued permits last year, which prompted Taiwan to handle the matter reciprocally while the two countries negotiated a resolution.
