Question 1

Is it necessary to buy additional insurance when hiring a car at JR Showacho Station?

Accepted Answer

When hiring a car at JR Showacho Station, valid insurance is required for financial protection; without it, your rental may be denied. If you already have insurance that covers international rentals for your vehicle type or if your credit card offers rental insurance abroad, you might not need extra coverage. However, if these conditions don't apply to you, purchasing additional insurance is advisable. You can choose from options such as Excess Fee Insurance during the booking process on our website, or Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the rental counter to ensure comprehensive protection.

Question 2

What is a one-way fee?

Accepted Answer

A one-way fee is applied when you return your hire car to a different location than where you originally picked it up. This fee helps cover the cost of relocating the vehicle back to its starting point. The amount of the one-way fee varies depending on the locations involved and the hire company's policies. Be sure to check the fee details when booking your hire to understand any additional charges that may apply.

Question 3

Can another person drive my hire vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Yes, another person can drive your hire vehicle, but they must be listed as an additional driver on your hire agreement. If someone who is not included in the agreement drives the vehicle, it may void the hire contract, and the insurance provider might refuse to cover any damage. To ensure coverage and avoid potential issues, make sure to register any additional drivers with the car hire company.
