How I Got My Drivers License in Japan - It Was Easy!

I recently went through the process of getting my driver’s license in Japan - was it more complicated than I expected? 🚗 From calling over 500 times just to make an appointment, to navigating an entirely Japanese process without speaking the language, this video shares my real step-by-step experience. Just to be clear - this is my experience of converting my Canadian license here in Osaka. The process can vary depending on your license, the city you’re in, and when you apply. But if you’re planning to live in Japan, this gives you a realistic look at what it can be like. /////////// VIDEO OVERVIEW //////////// 0:00 Introduction 0:28 Dialled 500 Times 1:00 Required Documents 1:36 Interviewed in Japanese 2:20 Eye Test 2:50 Success - Got my License! /////////// ABOUT THE CHANNEL //////////// 👋 Hi, I’m Brendan.
