I work for AAA in the USA. We are one of two agencies authorized to issue International Drivers Permits. The permit MUST be issued by the country you are a citizen of - you CANNOT get a legitimate IDP in the country you are visiting. By the way, I lived in Bali for 2 years and had my run-ins with the police. Don't be cheap and think you don't need one - all you need to do is to get stopped by some smart cop who knows the rules and then you will PAY !!
