INSURANCE
Insurance & Damage Cover
Clear, transparent cover. Here is exactly what you pay if something happens — and how to bring it to zero.
Basic Insurance – included with every rental
| Coverage | Description | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Bodily Injury Liability | Injury or death of others | Unlimited |
| Property Damage Liability | Damage to others' property | Unlimited (deductible ¥200,000) |
| Passenger Personal Accident | Injury or death of occupants | Up to ¥10,000,000 per person |
Not covered: no police report, unlicensed driving, alcohol or drugs, unauthorized drivers, or violation of the rental terms.
What you pay if the van is damaged (Basic)
1. Minor scratches – fixed price, no surprises
Scratches up to 20 cm are settled at a fixed rate. No repair quotes, no waiting, and no Non-Operation Charge.
| Scratch length (per area) | You pay |
|---|---|
| Up to 3 cm | ¥15,000 |
| 3–10 cm | ¥30,000 |
| 10–20 cm | ¥55,000 |
Measured at the longest point. Several scratches on one panel count as one area. Damage already recorded in your pick-up photos is never charged.
2. Larger damage – capped by the deductible
Dents, damage over 20 cm, glass, lights, tyres or interior are charged at actual repair cost, up to:
| Situation | Maximum you pay |
|---|---|
| Van can still be driven back | ¥100,000 |
| Van cannot be driven / total loss | ¥200,000 |
| Damage to someone else's property | ¥200,000 |
The deductible is a cap, not an extra fee. If the repair costs ¥60,000, you pay ¥60,000. Applies per incident.
3. Non-Operation Charge (NOC)
If the van has to go to the workshop and can't be rented out, an NOC covers the lost days:
| Situation | NOC |
|---|---|
| Driven back to base | ¥50,000 |
| Cannot be driven / not returned | ¥250,000 |
No NOC on fixed-price scratches. Worst case on Basic with a drivable van: ¥100,000 + ¥50,000 = ¥150,000.
