Grenada

Summary
Name Grenada
Note Unfortunately the driver's license and international driving permit (IDP) issued in Grenada is not valid to drive in Japan.
I will explain if anybody who has the driver's license issued by Grenada is allowed to drive in Japan.

Unfortunately, any driver's license and internaitonal driver's permit issued in Grenada 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 Grenada is not valid to drive in Japan.

Japan is only affiliated in the 1949 Geneva Convention and Grenada is not affiliated in the 1949 Geneva Convention.

Also, Japan does not have a individual treaty regarding driving in each others country.

Grenada is independent from United Kingdom. United Kingdom is affiliated under the 1949 Geneva Convention, but when becoming independent from United Kingdom, Grenada must join under the 1949 Geneva Convention or else, the UN considers Grenada not affiliated.

It is very confusing but, Grenada 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.

In the future, if Grenada 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.

On the internet, you may come across a fake international driver's license that is presented as if it is valid to drive in Japan.
