Your itinerary will have more details, or head over to our [Customer Service Portal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/service/?langid=2057) for more information. ### What types of cars can I rent in Japan? > Inexpensive, zippy and good on mileage, it's no wonder compact cars are the most popular type of hire in Japan. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily get around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city adventures or quick road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy ride or bigger with a full-size or premium — the choice is all yours! ### How do I find the best car hire deals in Japan with Expedia? > Browse our fantastic range of rental cars, check out reviews and compare offers from popular suppliers. In a few easy clicks, Expedia will help you score the best deal on your ride. Got a hotel or flight booking?

But there are some age-related requirements you should bear in mind before you book your Japan wheels. If you're a young driver, most rental outlets will charge an extra fee and limit the kinds of cars you're able to rent. The exact surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between suppliers. Take a moment to compare the requirements. ### What do you need to rent a car in Japan? > You'll need to present your driver's license and a credit card at the hire counter. Prior to pick-up, check with your selected company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance. ### Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Japan? > You can, and the great news is providers often offer lower rates the longer your hire term. Check out our [long-term car rental deals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/b/car-hire/long-term) in Japan and score a real bargain. ### Where can I find a Japan hire car if I am younger than 25? > Some Japan companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll want to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions so you know what to expect. ### Why should I rent a Japan car with Expedia? > From member exclusive discounts to our awesome holiday packages, there are so many reasons to hire a car with Expedia.
