Antigua and Barbuda drives on the left-hand side of the road.
Not strictly, but it's recommended. Antigua and Barbuda require visitors to buy a local temporary driving permit, obtainable through rental agencies.
In the US, an IDP is issued by AAA or the National Auto Club — it costs around $20, requires a passport photo, and can't be obtained after you've already left the country.
No — an IDP is a translation document, not a standalone license. You must carry your regular US driver's license alongside it at all times.
