FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Is this an official Nippon Rent-A-Car coupon?
A. Yes, this coupon and the provided information are officially verified and provided in direct partnership with Nippon Rent-A-Car Service, Inc.

Q. Can I pay with cash?
A. No, payment is by credit card only. Cash is not accepted under any circumstances to verify payment capability for ETC usage or potential accident costs. Please ensure you bring a credit card in the driver's own name.

Q. Do I need an International Driving Permit (IDP) to rent a car in Japan?
A. Yes, in principle, you must present your Passport and an International Driving Permit (issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention). Note: Travelers from Switzerland, Germany, France, Belgium, Monaco, and Taiwan need an official Japanese translation instead of an IDP.

Q. What are the benefits of using the LIVE JAPAN exclusive coupon code "iUzM2RfVlJ"?
A. By using this code, you not only get a 10% discount on the base rate but also automatically include the "Full Coverage" plan (CDW + ECO) as a paid option. This is the safest and most cost-effective way to book at offices nationwide, including Narita, Haneda, and Kansai Airports.

Q. Do I need a child seat if I am traveling with a child under 6?
A. Yes. Under Japanese law, child seats are mandatory for children under 6. Please select the "Child Safety Seat" option during reservation. Note that seats brought from abroad may not be used if they do not meet Japanese safety standards (JIS, etc.).

Q. What are "Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)" and "Non-Operation Charge (ECO)"?
A. CDW waives the deductible for property and vehicle damage, while ECO waives the business compensation fee if the car is being repaired. With the coupon code "iUzM2RfVlJ", these are automatically selected as a paid "Full Coverage" plan, so you can start your trip with peace of mind.

Q. What happens to my out-of-pocket expenses if I have an accident in Japan?
A. If you book through the LIVE JAPAN coupon, your out-of-pocket expenses are waived when you book with the selected full coverage plan. However, you MUST report to the police (Call 110) and contact the Accident Reception Center immediately from the scene, or the insurance will not apply.

Q. Can I rent an ETC card for Japanese highways?
A. Yes, it is available as a paid option. An ETC card allows you to pass through highway toll gates without stopping. The tolls are settled in one go at the rental office when you return the car, which is very convenient.

Q. What should I do if I am running late for my pick-up time?
A. Please call the pick-up office (e.g., Haneda Airport or New Chitose Airport branch) immediately. If you are more than one hour late without notice, your reservation may be canceled. We recommend entering your "Flight Number" so staff can track delays and hold your car.

Q. Can I return the car to a different location (One-Way)?
A. Yes, the "One-Way" system allows you to pick up a car in Tokyo and return it in Osaka, for example. Note that an additional fee will be charged based on the distance between the offices.

Q. Japan drives on the left. Are there any specific traffic rules I should know?
A. Japan is "Left-hand traffic / Right-hand drive." Pay special attention to the red triangular "STOP" (止まれ) signs. You must come to a COMPLETE STOP; Japanese police are very strict about this violation.

Q. I don't know the type of fuel. What happens if I use the wrong one?
A. Most passenger cars use "Regular" (Red nozzle). If you accidentally use Diesel (Green nozzle), it will cause engine failure and is NOT covered by insurance. You will be liable for the full cost of repairs.

Q. How do I find parking at sightseeing spots?
A. On-street parking is strictly prohibited. Use paid parking lots marked with a "P" sign. You can easily find nearby lots by searching for "Coin Parking" on Google Maps.

Q. Does the car navigation system support English or other languages?
A. While multi-language navigators are available, the easiest way is to use "Phone Number" search for destinations. We also recommend connecting your smartphone via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to use your familiar maps.

Q. How early should I return the car on my departure day?
A. As a rule, you should arrive at the office 3 hours before your international flight departure. This allows time for return procedures and the shuttle bus to the terminal, considering potential traffic congestion.

Q. When is the best time to book a rental car for peak travel seasons in Japan?
A. We highly recommend booking 2 to 3 months in advance, especially for Japan’s major holiday periods: Golden Week: Late April to early May (April 29 – May 6, 2026) Obon Festival: Mid-August (August 13 – August 16, 2026). During these times, vehicle availability becomes extremely limited nationwide. For the Cherry Blossom season (late March to early April), we also suggest early booking as it is one of the most popular times for international travelers.

Q. Can I use the LIVE JAPAN discount coupon during peak seasons like Golden Week or the Summer holidays?
A. Yes, the coupon is valid even during peak seasons! However, vehicles at popular locations (like New Chitose Airport or Narita Airport) sell out very quickly for late April and August. We recommend applying the coupon and completing your booking as early as possible to secure both the discount and your preferred car class.

Q. Is it too late to get a discount for the upcoming Cherry Blossom or early summer season?
A. It’s not too late, but availability is changing daily. If you are looking for a car for the Spring season (late March to May), check availability on this page immediately. The LIVE JAPAN coupon is applied at the time of booking, so if a car is available, you can still secure a great deal for your spring getaway.

Q. I’m planning a long-distance road trip in Hokkaido or Kyushu in the summer of this year. Which car class is best to book with the coupon?
A. For scenic drives in the summer of 2026, we recommend using the coupon to upgrade to a "Hybrid" or "SUV" class. These vehicles offer better fuel efficiency and more power for hilly areas like Biei (Hokkaido) or Aso (Kyushu). Since the coupon gives you a percentage off, the savings are even greater on long-term rentals, making premium, comfortable models more affordable.

Q. How do I choose the right car size for my group and luggage?
A. Japanese cars may be smaller than those in your home country. For example, a "Compact" class car is ideal for 2 adults with 2 medium suitcases. If you are a group of 4 or more with large suitcases, we recommend a Minivan or SUV (WA or WH class) to ensure enough space for both passengers and luggage. Tip: Check our "Class & Rates" page for detailed dimensions of each vehicle type.
