Shaken - Compulsory Vehicle Inspection
A vehicle inspection (shaken or JCI) is compulsory for all vehicles in every 2 years to ensure that all vehicles on the road are properly maintained and safe to drive.
Buying a voluntary insurance is strongly recommended. The compulsory insurance only covers the minimum costs incurred by the accident. Whatever the excess must be complemented either by the owner of the car or by the voluntary insurance.
Voluntary insurance can be bought through any of the agencies listed in this page: https://www.oist.jp/resource-center/car-insurance-agencies
