What do you need to rent a car in Shimokitazawa?
Before you can hit the road in Shimokitazawa, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card that matches the name on your licence. If you don't take out the company's insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of your own coverage. Requirements may vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a rental provider.
What side of the road do you drive on in Shimokitazawa?
