Drivinjapan, since 2018

If you want to rent a car in Japan for tourism, you need to have an official Japanese translation of your driver's license, as an international license is not enough. Since it is not possible to get the translation done from abroad, our bilingual team in Japan will help you with the necessary procedures through the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF). Once you have received the certified translation, you will be able to enjoy driving in Japan with a car, motorcycle (125cc or more), or even a kart. This way, you can explore the country on highways and rural roads that might not be easily accessible by train.

Official Driver Licence Translation for Japan

Drivinjapan.com is your partner for your trip to Japan. For 5 years, we have been assisting French, German, Swiss, Belgian, New Caledonian (and many more) tourists in obtaining a certified translation of their driver's license. For holders of driver's licenses issued in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Monaco, Germany, Slovenia, or Taiwan, it is imperative to obtain a certified translation of the driver's license from the JAF (Japan Automobile Federation). More and more travelers are interested in exploring the Japanese archipelago by car. Renting a car is a great opportunity to discover Japan differently, by getting off the beaten track. Japan's railway network may be one of the best in the world. However, traveling by car provides a certain level of freedom by allowing travelers to stop wherever they want and discover unusual places "off the beaten tracks" and enjoy the magnificent landscapes offered by Japan.

We provide delivery of your driver's license translation directly to your home or hotel. Our translations are officially certified by the Japan Automobile Federation and are equally valid to your driver's license.
