1. International driving permit. Can foreigners get one in Japan to drive in other countries?
2. Exchanging money. Does anyone know if it’s a better deal to do in Japan or in the foreign country?
3. Is a negative PCR test still needed even if you have all 4 shots?
4. Can someone recommend a good travel insurance. Will be headed to Indonesia and Singapore.

For the first three questions —
1. If you have a Japanese driver’s license, you can get a Japanese IDP, regardless of your nationality.
2. The best option is usually to use your ATM/debit card to receive local currency. You’ll most likely get a better exchange rate than you would from a currency exchange service, which will more than offset the small ATM fee.
3. If you have at least 3 doses (original 2 plus a booster), you no longer need a PCR test before your flight.
2. Use credit or pre-paid cards
3. not required if fully vaccinated, but get a vaccine certificate at ward office before traveling will be useful during re-entry. Also download mysos app, you’ll need it when returning.
4. (i usually use which ever option that is available during ticket booking or check-in )
Fuck you. Search the fucking group lazy cunt.
3) Not for entering Japan. For your destination, we don’t know.
4) Most people recommend Tokio Marine, I think. I normally just use whatever is included in my credit card.
