Hello, going to Italian embassy for driver's license authentication? What do I need to prepare? What is the process? Thank you!

I went to the Italian embassy to get the driver's license translation certified because the Italian authorities do not recognize notarized English translations, only their own embassy's certification. Although a regular translation is enough when picking up the car, it won't work if you encounter the police. The chances of the police checking are very small, unless there is an accident. The certification process takes a week, and I submitted it last Thursday, so I can pick it up this Thursday.

Excuse me, I have arrived in Switzerland today and I carelessly forgot to bring my original driver's license. Is there anyone still in China (preferably Beijing) who can bring it to me? I will be in Milan from 925 to 927, or in Florence. I'm afraid international express delivery may not be reliable in terms of time. My driver's license is in Beijing, so it would be best if I have a friend from Beijing. Thank you very much! I will give a 200 red envelope as a reward if successful! ? Italy Q&A

About the case of being charged about 100 euros more when picking up the car, please pay attention to whether you have paid for a full tank of oil. We usually think that you should get the car with a full tank of oil and return it with a full tank of oil, but the counter is not happy unless they charge you a little extra, so they will not tell you and then charge you for a full tank of oil. If you have already paid this money, do not go to refuel when returning the car. The money will not be refunded. If you have not picked up the car yet, you can refuse and ask the counter to change the terms ? Italy Q&A

Folks, I have a question. Has anyone had their refund processed, but then their credit card was charged again? This suggests that the refund company did not receive the corresponding documents, but I am sure that I processed them at the airport and each item was verified.

How to refuel when driving in Italy? As a general rule, it is best to fill up your tank when you see a sign indicating the next service station. This will ensure that you have enough fuel to reach your destination without having to stop along the way. In Italy, gas stations are typically open from 6:30am to 11:00pm, but some may have slightly different hours. Look for a sign that says "benzina" or "petrol" to find the gas station. When refueling, make sure to pull up to the pump and insert your fuel card or pay with cash at the pump. Some gas stations may also accept credit or debit cards. It's important to note that in Italy, fuel is sold in liters, not gallons. The standard unleaded gasoline in Italy is called "benzina senza piombo" (lead-free gasoline), but some gas stations may also offer premium gasoline called "benzina alta qualità" (high-quality gasoline). Additionally, some areas in Italy may have higher fuel prices than others, so it's a good idea to fill up when you see a good price. In summary, when driving in Italy, it's best to fill up your tank when you see a sign indicating the next service station, make sure to insert your fuel card or pay with cash at the pump, and be aware that fuel is sold in liters and may have different prices in different areas ?

If you haven't picked up the car yet, you can cancel it. If you booked with Avis at Rome Fiumicino, hurry up and cancel. They don't have the car model you booked, their service attitude is poor, and they automatically add insurance through 'upgrading the car model' without your consent. When I went to pick up the car on the 10th, I had to wait for at least two hours, at least! They can give you all the annoying things you can think of when renting a car. The most annoying thing is that I booked an Audi A3, but they claimed to upgrade me and gave me a two-door Fiat 500c instead! How can anyone travel with two large suitcases in a two-door car? Before I got the car, they kept saying it's similar to an Audi and definitely enough. After waiting for two hours, I finally got the car. Do I have to return it and wait for another two hours ?

For buses that don't stop or announce the stations, how do you ensure you don't get off at the wrong stop? It seems that in Italy, buses don't announce the stations and only stop when someone needs to get on or off, and you have to press a red button to signal that you want to get off... The method of counting the stations and listening for announcements doesn't work, so do you rely on the driver to call out the stops? But what if you don't speak Italian and the bus is crowded? Looking out for landmarks? You need to have landmarks to look at, and it's hard to see them when it's dark or when the bus is crowded... So the only thing I can think of is to look at the GPS location on the map... Do you have any clever tricks for this ? Italy Q&A
