The low-down on the Carnet de Passage

We got some more information on the Carnet de Passage today. Here is the deal, AA South Africa say that there is a Rand 6000.00 deposit that must be paid upfront. The Carnet with 25 free pages costs Rand 2500.00 and is valid for 1 year - we need this one as we are travelling through about 19 countries. Processing time for the Carnet should be about 1 week... This Carnet is valid for Africa only, Rand 6000.00 is refundable once the bike is returned to ZA with the full Carnet.
The www.aasa.co.za website has got good information on it but it helps to speak to them. The forms that need to be completed are all available on the website.

As for the international driver's license, 2 passport pictures and Rand 110.00.

Crank that throttle...
