How old do you have to be to rent a car in Uji?
Rental vehicle rules in Uji require drivers to be 18 and above. Are you a young driver? Surcharges and restrictions could apply. Many rental companies impose what is known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the car rental cost. Restrictions usually apply to the sorts of cars young drivers can rent as well. Age limits may vary between providers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Uji?
You'll need to present your driver's license and a credit card when you get to the rental counter. Prior to the pickup date, check with your selected company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Uji?
In Uji, get ready to drive on the left-hand side. This is obviously different from driving in the States, so be mindful and pay extra attention when you're at the steering wheel.
What is the cheapest car rental in Uji?
The lowest price for a rental car in Uji within the past seven days was just $55 per day. The second best deal snapped up by happy travelers was $63.

Where can I find an Uji car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Uji providers will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you'll want to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Uji?
After carefuly planning your getaway, don't skimp on safety — add collision protection while booking your Uji rental car with Expedia. There are plenty of advantages to this plan, including up to $35,000 in primary coverage for theft, accident damage and vandalism. Plus, with a zero-dollar deductible and round-the-clock emergency help, you'll be able to breathe a little easier in the event of a mishap.
Can I drive in Uji with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Japan, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note for international car rentals are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before driving away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
