How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kagoshima?

You'll need to present your driver's licence and a credit card in your name at the rental counter. Prior to the pickup date, check with your rental provider whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Kagoshima?
In Kagoshima, you'll need to drive on the left-hand side of the road. This alone can be daunting, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to what you're used to. To stay safe, take things slower and allow yourself ample time to reach your destination.
