Question

Can i use my australian driving license for driving in JAPAN? ?

Answer 1

Japan and Australia are signatories to the Geneva Convention on Road Traffic, meaning that you can use your Australian driving license for driving in Japan for up to a year.

But it's a good idea to obtain an international driving permit to supplement your driving license.

The IDP itself is not a driving license. It's a document that's a translation of your driving license into multiple languages with your photo on it, and you still need the original driving license to use it.

Answer 2

You can apply international driving license at your country for driving in Japan temporalily. If your stay legally in Japan will extend more then one year, you have to obtain your Japanese license to do so.
