Is a European Union (Slovakia) driver's licence valid in the US?

I'm leaving for US shortly after I get my drivers licence in 2 weeks or so.

I'm wondering if I'll be able to use it in USA. I know about the AAA thing for US drivers licence to be valid in Slovakia, but I'm not sure how it works the other way around.

Best Answer

If you're renting a car, yes it is valid.

If you buy a car, you'll need to get a valid licence fairly quickly - usually for the insurance company.
