Does Localiza require an IDP in Palestine?
Localiza in Palestine: the policy in plain terms
Requires the original IDP with your home licence at the counter for foreign renters across Brazil and Latin America. The largest car-rental company in Latin America.
The Palestinian territories drive on the right; an IDP is advised with your licence, and routes cross Israeli checkpoints that affect travel.
In Palestine specifically, palestine legally requires foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit with their national licence, so Localiza will ask for it at the counter. Rental is usually arranged via Israeli or local desks; carry an IDP and passport.
Localiza runs a south america network; at its Palestine desks, foreign renters are asked for the Local rules-format International Driving Permit alongside the original licence. Palestine drives on the right, uses the ILS, and sets a minimum driving age of 18, so an IDP is the document that removes any doubt at the counter.
