INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL

Essential documents can easily be overlooked. Make sure you are covered.

International Driving Permit (IDP) is a legal document that provides validity of your local driving licence as well as easing the burden in the event of an accident.

Advantages of International Driving Permits (IDP)

IDP is a legal travel document regulated by the United Nations, and it is for your protection and safety. IDPs can be helpful if you find yourself in need of identification or assistance. Your IDP is a valid form of identification in more than 150 countries worldwide and contains your name, photo and driver information in several languages – so it is understandable to most of the local officials and authorities of the countries you visit

Carnet de Passage en Douane (CPD)

Carnet de Passage en Douane (CPD) is the international customs document, which covers the temporary admission of motor vehicles. “Passport” for your car!

The Carnet de Passages en Douane, or CPD is an international customs declaration identifying the vehicle crossing country borders on its route. This action of crossing borders consequently may imply several temporary importations throughout the journey. It is also the internationally-recognized guarantee of the payment of any customs duties and import taxes chargeable if the vehicle is not re-exported or if any other problem arises. It facilitates travellers the entry into the country of final destination as well as a smooth and quicker border crossing, with fewer formalities, and without on-the-spot payment of guarantees in the countries in between while driving your vehicle to another country.

 

Advantage of Carnet de Passage (CPD)

  • Using a Carnet is an alternative to leaving a cash security deposit with a foreign government and reimbursement formalities.
  • Eliminates the need for national temporary importation documents
  • Facilitates entry formalities at border posts and port of entries. Most countries will accept carnets and some prefer to use their own documentation.

Only AIT/FIA automobile associations and appointed organisations can issue genuine CPD.
