# GlobalRules Travel Kit

> GlobalRules Travel Kit is a paid API for AI agents from globalrules-api.onrender.com, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-13).

Returns a comprehensive travel briefing for one country — visa rules, customs allowances, tipping norms, power plugs, emergency numbers, water safety, SIM options, public holidays, currency/payment culture, tourist taxes, and driving rules — in a single API call.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability globalrules-travel-kit-6d0e4697
```

Example prompt: I'm planning a trip to Spain — can you pull up everything I need to know before I go, like visa rules, what I can bring through customs, power plugs, emergency numbers, whether tap water is safe, tipping norms, and any tourist taxes?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs a comprehensive, multi-domain travel briefing for a single country in one call rather than assembling the same data from 10–15 separate specialty APIs. It is ideal for travel planning agents, itinerary builders, or any workflow where breadth of pre-trip country knowledge matters more than real-time flight or hotel data. At $0.02 per call it is far cheaper than aggregating equivalent data from individual visa, customs, plug, and emergency-number APIs.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported country code returns an error or empty result
- Country not in the 178-country dataset returns a 404 or not-found response
- Data staleness: government-sourced facts may lag behind recent policy changes
- Render.com cold-start latency if the service has been idle
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks the request before data is returned

## How this service works

Everything an agent needs to plan a trip to one country, in ONE call: visa requirements, customs duty-free allowances, tipping customs, power plugs and voltage, emergency numbers, tap water safety, SIM/eSIM options, public holidays during the stay, currency and payment culture, tourist taxes, driving side and IDP rules. 178 countries, government-sourced. Cheaper than 15 single calls. Example: /api/v1/kit/travel/JP

## Output

A structured JSON object containing the full travel kit for the requested country, including: visa entry requirements, customs duty-free allowances, tipping norms, power plug types and voltage, emergency contact numbers, tap water safety rating, SIM/eSIM availability, public holidays, currency and payment culture notes, tourist tax details, and driving side/IDP rules. The response also includes a country name, kit summary string, and a data freshness timestamp.
