Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Can foreigners get a car loan?
A. Applicants will be screened based on their status of residence, period of stay, and work status. It is easier for permanent residents and long-term residents to pass the examination, and even for a work visa, it is recommended that you have worked for one year or more.
Q. What is the market price for vehicle inspection?
A. The average cost is 70,000 to 100,000 yen for a light car and 100,000 to 150,000 yen for a regular car. Includes weight tax, compulsory automobile liability insurance premium, and stamp fee.
Q. What should I be careful about when buying a used car?
A. Be sure to check the repair history, mileage, and maintenance records. You can feel safe knowing that your vehicle has been certified by a private third-party organization.
Q. Can I get a parking permit by myself?
A. You can apply at your local police station, but a dealer will often do it for you (acting fee of 5,000 to 10,000 yen).
Q. Is voluntary insurance required?
A. Although it is legally optional, it is strongly recommended that you subscribe for unlimited access to both people and property. The amount of compensation in the event of an accident can be in the billions.
