## 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-e89b6324
```

Example prompt: What do I need to know before traveling to Japan — visa requirements, power adapters, tipping, emergency numbers, tap water safety, SIM options, and any tourist taxes or public holidays?

## 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 making 10-15 separate API calls for visa, customs, power, emergencies, etc. It is especially valuable for pre-trip planning workflows, travel chatbots, or itinerary builders where breadth of country-level facts matters more than deep single-topic detail. At $0.02 per call it is significantly cheaper than assembling equivalent data from multiple specialized sources.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported country code returns a 404 or empty kit
- Stale data if government sources haven't been refreshed recently
- Country code typo returns error or wrong country data
- Payment failure (402) if x402 funds are insufficient
- Render.com cold-start latency on first request after idle period

## 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

Data is government-sourced and covers 178 countries.
