Many Ukrainians visit or live in Bali. Here's what your licence needs to rent a scooter legally and stay insured.

What a Ukrainian rider needs

DocumentWhy it matters
Ukrainian licence with category A1 or ABali rental scooters are motorcycles
International Driving Permit (issued in Ukraine)Expected by police next to your licence
PassportShown at handover and police checks
Travel insurance covering scooter ridingCheck the licence conditions

Licence rules and IDP procedures can change. Check with the issuing authority in Ukraine and your foreign ministry's travel advice before you go.

A1 or A: which scooter?

With A1 choose a BeAT, Scoopy, Vario 125 or Fazzio; for the NMAX, PCX or ADV you need A. 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.

How booking works

  1. Pick a scooter in the catalogue (or tell us your height, route and number of riders).
  2. Send your dates, the hotel or villa name with a Google Maps pin, and your WhatsApp number.
  3. The admin confirms the bike, the total price and the delivery time — no payment yet.
  4. The scooter arrives with 2 helmets. Check it together, show your passport and licence, then pay.

Book on WhatsApp, via the Bali scooter rental catalogue or find the scooter rental near me: the bike is delivered to your hotel or villa with 2 helmets and you pay when it arrives — no deposit.
