Driving license training camp for foreign nationals

Requirements.
*to have an enough speaking and listning skills to understand what teachers say.
*to have Intermediate writing and reading skills.

Basically Provisional license exam is written in Japanese, but some schools have the oter language one.

Note: Some driving schools may have even higher requirements. Admission is not guaranteed if you have N3 Japanese language skill, and there may be a reading and writing test upon admission.

If you would like to have a driver's license in Japan, Japanese language is the most important. Many non-native speaker have a hard time to study with teachers who speaks Japanese.

Especially Provisional license exam is too hard to pass one time. You have the extended warranty, however, I don't think it is not enough to foreigners.

If your Japanese speaking and listning are Intermediate, the other curriculum is much beter than Provisional license exam. Even easier, there are all Japanese teachers, I recommend you study words and predicates related to the Road Traffic Act before you will get a school.

A driver's license training camp, or "Gasshuku Menkyo" in Japanese, refers to a concentrated period during which individuals stay at accommodation facilities and undergo intensive training in driving skills and theory to obtain a driver's license. In most cases, this training takes place at driving schools located in areas away from where the individual resides.

The training fees, accommodation fees, and meal expenses (if meals are included) are typically all included in the fees stated by "Menkyo no Takumi" as a principle.
