To rent a car in Japan, you will need:・A valid driver's license from your home country.・An International Driving Permit (IDP) or a Japanese driver's license.・A passport for identification.・A credit card for payment and security deposit.

No, you cannot use a foreign driver’s license alone. You will need an International Driving Permit (IDP) in addition to your foreign driver's license. Certain countries have agreements with Japan allowing for license translation services instead of an IDP.

An IDP is a document that translates your home country's driver's license into several languages, including Japanese. It allows you to drive legally in Japan for up to one year.

The minimum age to rent a car in Japan is typically 18, but some rental companies may have a minimum age requirement of 21 or 25. Check with the rental company for their specific age policies.
