Why Do You Need a Certified Translation of Your French Driver's License?

Foreign drivers in Japan must have a certified translation of their driver's license if their country does not issue licenses recognized under the Geneva Convention.
For French drivers, this translation, certified by the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF), is essential. It allows local authorities to verify your license's authenticity and confirm your eligibility to drive legally in Japan.
