・If you hold a driver's license from Switzerland, Germany, France, Taiwan, Belgium or Monaco, you must have an official Japanese translation obtained from the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF).

・On the day of the event, please make sure to bring your International Driving Permit (or your home country's driver's license and a Japanese translation depending on the country in which the license was issued) and your original passport.
(Note)
Under Japanese law, the driver's license must be issued in a country or region that is a signatory to the Geneva Convention (https://www.keishicho.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/menkyo/menkyo/kokugai/kokugai04.html) and must be in the format prescribed by the convention (※). Therefore, customers who do not have a corresponding driver's license cannot use this product.
*Depending on the country or region, even if it is a member of the Geneva Convention, the license may be issued in a format based on the Vienna Convention. In this case, the license does not fall under the "prescribed format" above (you will not be able to drive).
Please note that there are also restrictions, such as the validity period being calculated from the date of landing in Japan (the validity period of an international driver's license is one year from the date of issue) or the validity period of the license itself, whichever is shorter.
Driving on public roads without a valid license is subject to criminal punishment for unlicensed driving. For more information, please also see here (https://www.npa.go.jp/policies/application/license_renewal/have_DL_issed_another_country.html).
