Lithuanian driving licenses will become valid in more than 50 countries after the Seimas ratifies an international convention, Transport Minister Rokas Masiulis said on Tuesday.
Masiulis said the ratification of the Geneva Convention on Road Traffic would make it easier for Lithuanians to travel in Japan, the United States, New Zealand, Thailand and other countries.
The Seimas launched the ratification procedure on Tuesday and is scheduled to discuss the document on September 27.
Lithuania in the fall of 1991 ratified the 1968 Vienna Convention on Road Traffic, but since it has not ratified the Geneva convention, its driving licenses are not valid in 54 countries that are parties to the latter but not to the former.
