Rules guideDocuments
Visitors can generally drive with a foreign licence for a limited time, but state rules differ; carry an International Driving Permit if the licence is not in English.
Charges
Australia has city toll roads, park entry fees, camping permits and ferries rather than a single national vignette.
LEZ
Australia does not use a national low-emission sticker for touring campervans, but city tolls, height limits and local parking restrictions are common.
Overnight
Do not assume free camping is legal just because a place is remote. Check state, council, national-park and land-manager rules.
Official checks
National meteorological warnings for wind, snow, heat, storms and flood watches. Road agency traffic map for closures, chain controls, incidents and roadworks.
Japan
Rules guideDocuments
Visitors must match Japan's foreign-licence rules and, for a private imported vehicle, the customs and carnet or temporary-admission process.
Charges
Expressway tolls, ETC compatibility, ferries, parking and route choice can dominate the cost of a Japanese motorhome trip.
LEZ
There is no simple national camper low-emission sticker for visitors, but city parking, height limits, local traffic rules and narrow roads need careful routing.
Overnight
Use campsites, RV parks, michi-no-eki where overnight stays are allowed, private parking or hosted sites rather than assuming roadside camping is acceptable.
Official checks
National meteorological warnings for wind, snow, heat, storms and flood watches. Road agency traffic map for closures, chain controls, incidents and roadworks.

Service intervals
Excellent touring country, but service distance and weather exposure require conservative reserves.
Carry more drinking water than the daily estimate before outback or national-park sections.Service coverage varies by region. Plan water, dump and overnight stops before long legs.
Carry a reserve and confirm potable-water access before remote legs.Overnights, services, ferries and borders
