Car hire FAQs
Find answers to frequently asked questions about car hires in Fukuoka, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on 26 November 2023.
What are the requirements to hire a car in Fukuoka?
Whether you are looking for an economy or a luxury car hire in Fukuoka, you must be 18 years or older to hire a car. Once you meet this requirement, then bring your valid non-Japanese driving licence and passport with you to collect your hire car in Fukuoka. You will also need an international driver permit issued by your home country. Your permit and licence will not be valid if they are issued from your countries embassy, once already in Fukuoka, they must have been issued in your home country before arrival to the area. If you have a Taiwanese, Belgian, Swedish, French, German, Slovenian, or Monacan driving licence, you won't be required to get an international driving licence. All you have to do is bring your driving licence with its Japanese translation.
What are the rules for driving in Fukuoka?
When driving your Fufuoka car hires, you will be driving on the left side of the road. Drinking and driving is strictly prohibited. Most road signs on major roads are in Japanese and English, making them easy to navigate. The speed limits are 80 to 100 km/h (50-62 mph) on expressways, 40 km/h (25 mph) in urban areas, 30 km/h (18.6 mph) in smaller side streets and underdeveloped areas. Every person in the car hire vehicle must be wearing a seat belt at all times, and children under the age of six years old are required to be secured in an age-appropriate child seat.
What type of car is recommended for driving in Fukuoka?
Road conditions tend to be good, although side streets in the city can be rather narrow making it hard for larger vehicles to navigate. If you are planning on exploring the outskirts of the city, we recommend a small or compact car hire such as Suzuki Wagon R or a Nissan Versa Note. Both cars are automatics which is recommended for driving in high traffic or on curvy roads. Traffic congestion can be high in the Fukuoka city centre, which again requires a small compact car to maximise fuel efficiency and to make the driving experience easier.
