Home vehicle rules in Shirakawa require drivers to be 18 and over. Are you a young driver? Some restrictions and surcharges could apply. Home suppliers impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions often apply to the types of cars available to young motorists as well. Age limits may differ between companies, so check before booking.

Most home companies will ask for these two things — a current driver’s license and credit card. If you’d like to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring with you to the home counter.

In Shirakawa, like all of Japan, you drive on the left. Take it slow at first and build confidence driving on the opposite side if you’ve never done it before.
