What is “NOC”?
Rental cars are considered commercial vehicles, just like taxis. If you are involved in an accident while using a rental car and the vehicle requires repairs, regardless of the extent of the damage or the length of the repair period, a Non-Operation Charge (N.O.C.) will be collected as business compensation. If you are unable to pay the N.O.C., you will be responsible for covering all associated costs related to the claim.Even if you are enrolled in the liability waiver program, you will still be required to pay this amount. (Tax-exempt)
We will separately charge for the period during which the rental car cannot be operated. In Miyako Island, accidents are very common, and even if your vehicle is hit while parked, a Non-Operation Charge (NOC) will apply. If the accident liability ratio is 8:2 or less, the NOC will not be applicable. In the case of a total loss from a single-vehicle accident, the NOC may not be applicable depending on the accident circumstances. Over 90% of our customers choose to enroll. On average, payments range from approximately 50,000 to 300,000 yen.
In the event of a total loss, it may take more than two months to ship the vehicle, which can result in payments exceeding 500,000 yen. If smoking or cigarette butts are found inside the vehicle, a deodorizing fee will be charged. For lost keys, a fee of 30,000 yen will apply.Stone chips and scratches: 7 days, dents and cracks: 21 days, unable to drive normally: 45 days, total loss: over 60 days. Drivers with less than one year since obtaining their license cannot enroll in the Wide Safety Compensation Plan. Business compensation will be charged at actual cost.
In Miyako Island, there are few repair shops, and it may take time before the vehicle can be sent in for repairs. The waiting days are also counted as business compensation. The compensation days listed above are the minimum period. If the repair takes longer than these periods, additional charges will apply.
We recommend enrolling in our “Wide Peace-of-Mind Protection Plan,” which also covers NOC. Over 90% of our customers choose this plan. To ensure your enjoyable trip isn’t ruined, we strongly encourage you to consider signing up.
