When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving in Fukushima by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like Times typically offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

Before concluding your car hire in Fukushima, confirm the exact drop-off location with Times. This will save you time and help avoid any confusion at the end of your rental period.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Fukushima, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

When selecting insurance, consider whether it includes free excess coverage. Free excess means you won’t pay a deductible in case of damage, providing additional peace of mind. Compare options to find the best fit for your needs.
