Question 1

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 2

Can I hire a car if I’m a foreigner at JR Nara Station

Accepted Answer

Yes, as a foreigner, you can typically hire a car at JR Nara Station provided you meet the hire company’s requirements. These usually include being of legal driving age, having a valid driver’s license, and using a major credit card. In some cases, you may also need an International Driving Permit (IDP). For the most accurate information on necessary documents and conditions, check with the local car hire company or visit their website before booking.

Question 3

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

Accepted Answer

When hiring a car at JR Nara 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 4

Accepted Answer

To ensure you get the best deal, it’s advisable to compare rates and check for any available discounts or promotions during the booking process. Always review the pricing details carefully before finalizing your reservation.

Question 7

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Question 8

What is the minimum age to hire a car at JR Nara Station

Accepted Answer

The minimum age to hire a car at JR Nara Station station is typically 21 years old, although this can vary by region and car hire company. In countries like the United States and Canada, drivers younger than 25 may incur a young driver surcharge. In Europe, you can usually hire a car if you’re 18 years old, though additional fees might apply for drivers under 25. In Australia, the minimum age is also generally 21 years old, with extra charges possible for drivers younger than this age. Always verify the specific age requirements and potential surcharges with the car hire company, as these can differ significantly by provider and location.

Question 9

Can I use a debit card to hire a car at JR Nara Station?

Accepted Answer

Debit cards are accepted by many international car hire companies, but policies can vary by supplier and location. At JR Nara Station, acceptance of debit cards depends on the specific hire agency's terms and conditions. Generally, you may need to provide additional documentation or undergo a credit check if using a debit card. To confirm whether your debit card will be accepted and to understand any additional requirements, check the terms on the booking website or contact the hire company directly before making your reservation.

Question 10

What should I do if I damage a hire car at JR Nara Station?

Accepted Answer

If you damage a hire car at JR Nara Station, the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) typically covers the cost of repairs. To avoid additional expenses, make sure your insurance policy includes zero excess coverage. If your CDW has an excess limit, you'll be responsible for paying part of the repair costs, which is usually deducted from the deposit you provided when hiring the car. For specific details on coverage and potential charges, it's best to check your rental agreement and insurance policy before you drive.
