How old do you have to be to rent a car in Shinsekai?
Drivers with a valid licence 18 and above can rent a car in Shinsekai. While some outlets may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 18, contracts will come with additional fees. Find out what age range the young renter fee applies to, and the cost, before booking your wheels. Outlets also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can rent. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Shinsekai?
You'll need to present your driver's licence and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your chosen rental company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Shinsekai?
In Shinsekai, as with all of Japan, you drive on the left-hand side. Go slower to build confidence driving on the opposite side if you've never done it before.

Where can I find a Shinsekai car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a car if you're under 25 years in Shinsekai often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some outlets have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years of age, yet other companies may not apply any additional fees for this age bracket. It'd be smart to read the terms and conditions of your preferred car rental dealer to escape any surprise charges when collecting your car.
