Renting a Scooter in Bali with a Saudi, Qatari, Kuwaiti, Omani or Bahraini Licence
By the siappergi.com team · Published · 5 min read
Bali is increasingly popular with families and couples from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain. If you'd like to ride a scooter, here's what your licence needs.
What a Saudi or Gulf rider needs
| Document | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Motorcycle licence from your country | Bali rental scooters are motorcycles |
| International Driving Permit (issued in your country before travel) | Expected by police next to your licence |
| Passport | Shown at handover and police checks |
| Travel insurance covering scooter riding | Check the licence conditions |
Licence rules and IDP procedures can change. Check with the issuing authority in your Gulf country and your foreign ministry's travel advice before you go.
Muslim-friendly riding days
Halal food and mosques are easy to find in south Bali — see Muslim-friendly Bali by scooter. Bali keeps left — read riding on the left in Bali and take a quiet first ride near your hotel.
Not licensed for motorcycles? A car with driver, a rental car or ride-hailing is safer for you and your insurance.
