here’s how to book
STEP 1
Go to our booking form and select your preferred Hakucar vehicle from Kei, Family or SUV. Select dates, time and location for pick-up and drop-off. Add any extra requests or questions. We’ll respond with booking confirmation on the same day, and send you a secure payment link later.
STEP 2
Get ready for your trip by preparing a valid driver’s license in advance. You will need a valid International Driving Permit (IDP), issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention.
Plus, remember to bring your original driver’s license and passport on your trip.
STEP 3
We’ll be ready to meet you at your pick-up location 10 minutes before your arrival. The handover process takes around 15 minutes. After that, you’re all set to explore the Hakuba Valley in your Hakucar. On your trip, we’ll be happy to assist you in any way we can.
Tackle the Hakuba Valley with confidence in a 4WD kei car—small in size, big on performance
Planning your trip to Hakuba Valley and wondering if you really need a car? The answer is yes — especially if you want to explore beyond your accommodation, reach different ski resorts, and enjoy the freedom to move on your schedule.
During winter, Hakuba’s public transportation and shuttles can get crowded and limited to set routes. With your own snow-ready KEI car rental from Hakuba with HAKUCAR, you’re in control — from chasing fresh powder at Cortina to slipping out for dinner in Echoland.
Renting a car in Hakuba makes travel easier — particularly for couples or solo travellers who want to avoid the hassle of waiting for buses or carrying gear through snow.
A compact 4WD KEI car gives you:
Freedom to visit multiple ski resorts and onsen towns at your own pace.
Convenience to carry skis, snowboards, or shopping in your own vehicle.
Safety with snow tyres, snow wipers, and roof pods or ski racks included.
Comfort with heated interiors and excellent fuel efficiency.
Hakuba’s roads are well maintained through the winter season, and driving on the left side of the road (just like Australia or the U.K) feels natural after a few minutes behind the wheel.
Can Foreigners Drive and Rent a Car in Hakuba?
Yes — as long as you have the right documents.
To rent a KEI car in Hakuba, you’ll need:
Your original driver’s licence from your home country.
Your passport. Bring this along for ID.
A valid International Driving Permit (IDP), issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention on Road Traffic. This is often issued by your national automobile association (such as NRMA or AAA).
Make sure your permit is obtained before you travel to Japan — it must be issued in your home country and presented alongside your licence.
When you arrive, the HAKUCAR team will check your documents, explain local driving tips, and get you on the road safely. Our staff speak English and Japanese and are experienced with Australian, American, and international guests — making the pickup process smooth and easy.
About the KEI Car: Compact, 4WD, and Ready for Snow
Hakuba’s narrow roads and heavy snowfall demand vehicles designed for the conditions — and Japan’s KEI class cars are built exactly for that.
