Does Europcar require an IDP in South Sudan?
Europcar in South Sudan: the policy in plain terms
Requires an IDP for non-EU and non-Latin-alphabet licences across its European network. Europe's leading mobility brand.
South Sudan drives on the right; an IDP is expected with your home licence, and most travel relies on 4x4s and arranged drivers.
In South Sudan specifically, south Sudan legally requires foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit with their national licence, so Europcar will ask for it at the counter. Self-drive is rare; an IDP, passport and 4x4 are required where available.
Europcar runs a europe / global network; at its South Sudan desks, foreign renters are asked for the Local rules-format International Driving Permit alongside the original licence. South Sudan drives on the right, uses the SSP, and sets a minimum driving age of 18, so an IDP is the document that removes any doubt at the counter.
What to bring to the Europcar counter in South Sudan
- Your original national driving licence (the IDP never replaces it).
- Your International Driving Permit in the Local rules format.
- Your passport and a payment card in the main driver's name.
