I didn't even have to write Kanji. They accepted Romanji. When you come to renew your license, make sure to go within a week of your licenses expiry date. http://www.best-of-sapporo-japan.com/japanese-drivers-license.html I was two weeks late, but I called them up and they said it wasn't a problem. I think I might of had to pay a penalty though. The whole process to get my license renewed cost about 6,000 yen. It takes about half a day, so make sure to go first thing in the morning.

I tackled this today and came away with a licence. My thoughts: - Know how to write your address in Kanji, your name in Katakana and your Birthdate in Japanese years (especially if you were born before "Heisei" and so can't just count backwards). These are used on the form you fill out. - Check the size of your passport photos. I assumed the photos that I bought from home would be correct, but they were too big. Luckily there is a photo booth on the second floor behind the cafe. 700 yen will get you 4 photos of the right size. - Know the history of your foreign licence. For example when it was renewed and how many times etc. I was asked a question about this and forgot at the time. - If your licence does not have an 'issue date', they may ask for some documentation showing that. I was asked and a couple of other people there were getting quizzed on it too. - I paid two fees (for what I have no idea). One for 2400 yen and one for 2100 yen. Have enough cash on you. - I was first in line at 1:00pm and got my licence at around 3:50pm. Great guide. I tackled this today and came away with a licence. My thoughts:
