What's the age requirement to rent a car in Chiba?

Usually, the age limit for renting a car in Chiba is 21—the same as it is across the rest of the country. Additionally, many suppliers charge an added fee if you are under 25. Be sure to go over the supplier's terms to discover what the exact price will be before you book your car.

Will I need insurance to get a car rental in Chiba?

When driving in Chiba or the rest of Japan, you will need insurance. Many suppliers require that you show proof of insurance before you rent a car. The majority of countries require driver's insurance. You might be able to buy additional insurance through the rental car dealer, if you are concerned your insurance won't cover you while traveling through JPN.

Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa or American Express, give some insurance, there are usually restrictions. For instance, you may not be covered if you get a luxury or larger vehicle. Be sure to check the rental car company's policy before you decide.

What is the fuel policy for Chiba rental cars?

Most suppliers allow you to choose which policy you want. Here is a list of the typical policies.

What fuel policy do you recommend?

We recommend a full tank policy. You receive the car topped off. If you return the rental with less than the amount you received it with, most companies will charge a premium, and sometimes up to 3X the amount of current gas prices to refill it. To avoid any added expenses, it is best to find a filling station before you bring your car back.

Should I get unlimited miles when I rent a car in Chiba?

Unlimited miles is a great option if you decide to do a bit of sightseeing or visit several business associates all over Chiba. You can drive wherever you like and not incur extra charges. Review your policy to see if there are any limitations.

Before you leave the lot

Before you begin on your Chiba adventure, be sure you go over a few things prior to leaving the lot. You should:

• Check out the vehicle and be certain there is no dents or scratches. If you notice any, write it down on your paperwork
• Check the trunk to determine if the spare is properly inflated and the jack and lung wrench are there
• Familiarize yourself with the car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Figure out how to work the entertainment and GPS (if available). It's best to limit any unneeded distractions when you are driving around a new region
