Got my digital permit in under 9 minutes before flying to Madrid. Sixt at the airport accepted it without question. Would 100% use again.

Used Official IDP for my Thailand trip. The booklet arrived two days later in proper packaging. Pay-first-upload-later was such a relief, I was at work when I started the order.
The rental desk in Athens accepted it instantly. Booklet feels official, paper is thick, looks like the real document. Will use again for my US road trip.
Cheaper than going through the NRMA and arrived in Bali far faster. Honestly impressed with the design. Looks legitimate.
