Renting a Scooter in Bali with a Turkish Licence: Class A1/A2/A & the International Permit
By the siappergi.com team · Published · 5 min read
Bali has become a favourite long-haul trip for Turkish travellers. A scooter is the easiest way to explore — here's which ehliyet class you need and how to book with no deposit.
What a Turkish rider needs
| Document | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Ehliyet with class A1, A2 or A | Bali scooters are motorcycles |
| International Driving Permit (motorcycle class) | Expected by police next to your licence |
| Passport | Shown at handover and police checks |
| Travel insurance covering scooter riding | Check the licence conditions |
Procedures can change. Check with the issuing organisation and the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs travel information before you go.
A1 or A: which scooter?
A1 covers up to 125 cc — choose a BeAT, Scoopy, Vario 125 or Fazzio. For the NMAX 155, PCX 160 or ADV 160 you need A2 or A. Bali keeps left — read riding on the left in Bali.
Not licensed for motorcycles? A car with driver, a rental car or ride-hailing is safer for you and your insurance.

How booking works

- Send your dates, the hotel or villa name with a Google Maps pin, and your WhatsApp number.
- The admin confirms the bike, the total price and the delivery time — no payment yet.
