Does Alamo require an IDP in Nauru?
Alamo in Nauru: the policy in plain terms

Nauru drives on the left and has a single ring road around the island; an IDP is advised with your home licence.
In Nauru specifically, nauru legally requires foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit with their national licence, so Alamo will ask for it at the counter. Rental is very limited; an IDP and passport advised.
Alamo runs a global network; at its Nauru desks, foreign renters are asked for the Local rules-format International Driving Permit alongside the original licence. Nauru drives on the left, uses the AUD, and sets a minimum driving age of 18, so an IDP is the document that removes any doubt at the counter.
