| Note | Unfortunately the driver's license and international driving permit (IDP) issued in Bahamas is not valid to drive in Japan. |
I will explain if anybody who has the driver's license issued by Bahamas is allowed to drive in Japan.
Unfortunately, any driver's license and internaitonal driver's permit issued in Bahamas is not valid to drive in Japan.
To drive a vehicle legally in Japan, you will need a driver's license. The necessary documentation needed to issue a deriver's license does not depend on the driver's Nationality but depends on which country the driver's license is issued from and which country the driver resides in.
Unfortunately the driver's license and international driving permit (IDP) issued in Bahamas is not valid to drive in Japan.
Japan is only affiliated in the 1949 Geneva Convention and Bahamas is not affiliated in the 1949 Geneva Convention.
Also, Japan does not have a individual treaty regarding driving in each others country.
Bahamas is independent from United Kingdom. United Kingdom is affiliated under the 1949 Geneva Convention, but when becoming independent from United Kingdom, Bahamas must join under the 1949 Geneva Convention or else, the UN considers Bahamas not affiliated.
It is very confusing but, Bahamas did not join the 1949 Geneva Convention after the independence, but still may have issued a International Driving Permit (IDP) under the 1949 Geneva Convention.
In that particular International Driving Permit (IDP), it may state that Japan is one of the countries that is valid to drive, but Japan is very strict. That particular international driving permit (IDP) is not valid in Japan to drive.
Bahamas is affiliated with 1968 Vienna Convention. Japan is not affiliated with the 1968 Vienna Convention.
Any international driving permit (IDP) issued under the 1969 Vienna Convention is not valid to drive in Japan.

In the future, if Bahamas affiliates under the 1949 Geneva Convention, the international driving permit (IDP) under the 1949 Geneva Convention in the proper format and issued by the respectable government branch or assigned agent will be valid to drive in Japan.
