| Mar 26, 2014 at 18:41 | comment | added | user102008 | @landroni: if you expatriate to some place, then aren't you by definition a resident of that place? | |
| Mar 26, 2014 at 8:54 | comment | added | landroni | @user102008 Yes, but what if you're born in one place where you get the license, and then expatriate and live in another place? | |
| Mar 26, 2014 at 8:26 | comment | added | user102008 | Usually, one would only get a driver's license in a place where you're resident -- the fact that you get a driver's license means you reside there. | |

| Mar 24, 2014 at 18:17 | comment | added | landroni | @Flimzy I now removed the bit on IDP as the question really is about foreign license and residency. | |

rm IDP bit to avoid confusion

The important thing is that the IDP is not in and of itself a license, but a translation of a valid license from somewhere. California does not particularly care about your residency, citizenship/nationality, etc. in the jurisdiction which issues the license, simple that you have it and that it is valid. | |
