EstôniaA 125 cc scooter needs category B with three years of experience; anything bigger needs category A. Helmets are mandatory across the EU.
An IDP under the 1949 or 1968 convention is required alongside your national licence.
Sudão do SulThe country is party to neither the Vienna nor the Geneva Convention, so recognition of a foreign licence depends on local law and on the rental company. Bring an IDP: it works almost everywhere, but there is no guarantee — check with the rental firm before booking.
BarbadosA local driving permit is required, issued by rental firms or the police for a small fee. Traffic drives on the left.
ChinaInternational permits are not recognised at all: you need a Chinese licence, and a temporary one can be issued for the length of your trip. Renting is impossible without it.
Sri LankaA foreign licence alone is not valid: the IDP must be endorsed by the Automobile Association of Ceylon and a local permit issued. Without it insurance does not apply.
JapãoOnly the 1949-convention IDP is recognised — Russian licences do not qualify, so you need an official JAF translation or a Japanese licence. Traffic drives on the left.

O que é a carta internacional e quando te salva
A carta de condução internacional não é uma carta à parte, mas a tradução oficial da tua. Só vale junto com o original e emite-se num dia.
Duas convenções
Há dois formatos: a Convenção de Viena de 1968 e a de Genebra de 1949. O formato que cada país reconhece determina se a tua carta serve — o Japão, por exemplo, só aceita o de Genebra.
A categoria A decide tudo
O erro clássico sobre duas rodas: alugar uma scooter com a carta B. Na Tailândia, Indonésia e Bali é a causa mais comum de multas e, depois de um acidente, o seguro simplesmente não paga, nem a ti nem a terceiros.
Até 125 cc na Europa
Na maioria dos países da UE podes conduzir uma scooter de 125 cc com a carta B ao fim de três anos. Fora da Europa essa facilidade normalmente não existe: ou categoria A ou nada.
Condução à esquerda
Reino Unido, Irlanda, Chipre, Malta, Japão, Tailândia, Indonésia, Índia, África do Sul, Austrália e Nova Zelândia conduzem à esquerda. De mota é mais perigoso do que de carro: nas curvas e nos cruzamentos o corpo volta sozinho à faixa habitual.
É preciso carta internacional no estrangeiro
Depende do país e do aspeto da tua carta. As cartas recentes com transliteração latina são aceites na Geórgia, Turquia, EUA, México e em boa parte da América Latina. No Sudeste Asiático, nos EAU e na América do Sul é quase sempre exigida a internacional — sem ela, alugar é ilegal.
A mota é outra história. A categoria B não habilita a conduzir mota em lado nenhum, exceto na Europa com o limite de 125 cc. Os aluguers na Tailândia e em Bali entregam scooters a qualquer um, mas isso é o negócio deles, não uma isenção legal: a polícia multa o condutor e o seguro não paga.
A carta internacional é emitida com base na carta nacional, vale três anos e custa pouco. Tratar disso antes da viagem fica mais barato do que uma única multa no local.
