Carnet
Just a quick note about Carnets
In Canada it is also possible to get a Canadian Carnet at
ATA Carnet Canada
The Canadian Chamber of Commerce
you can call Brooke Lees in Vancouver at 604 681 2111
they have a website but I havent found it yet
For me they are Cheaper than the CAA Carnets
THey look a bit different, but are accepted everywhere. Good for one year (renewable)
I used them in 1995-1996 which included Africa mid-east and Pakistan India.
I believe this is some kind of business type carnet but all you need to do is say that you are doing a photographic trip or some BS like that and you are in. I registered my canon eos camera and lens on the same carnet just to make it look more credible.
The bonus with this carnet is that it can be ready in LESS THAN 4 DAYS. whereas the CAA carnet takes a month.
Grant I will be doing another RTW in January and will try to get in touch with you on this.
Cheers
