Is IDP(International driving permit) proof mandatory for Schengen visa application
I have applied for a Schengen visa and within the itinerary I have mentioned that from Rome to Amalfi I will be using a rental car but I did not attach copy of my driver license or the IDP. Will this lead to rejection?
The other thing to consider is that I have mentioned in the cover letter that I will be traveling with a group of friends, so will the visa officer understand that maybe its my friend who will will drive and approve my visa request?
