Frequently asked

Can I rent a car in Jeju with only my foreign licence?

Usually no. Foreign visitors are generally asked for the original domestic licence, original passport and a qualifying International Driving Permit; the rental company may impose additional age or driving-history rules.

Should I buy full insurance for a Jeju rental car?

Broad collision and liability coverage is strongly recommended. Read exclusions for tyres, wheels, underbody damage, single-car accidents and loss-of-use charges before accepting the vehicle.
