For Foreign FIA Club's Members


The members of the affiliated automobile clubs of the FIA (Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile) or the AIT (Alliance Internationale de Tourisme) can be provided the same services as JAF members upon the presentation of their home clubs' valid membership card under the FIA reciprocal agreement. Our services are available up to a year from the date they entered Japan. To obtain our services, club members must present their current club membership card which usually bears the FIA or AIT logo.


Breakdown and towing service

Breakdown service: Road assistance vehicles are on call 24 hours a day throughout the country for passenger cars and motorcycles.
For any member of FIA/AIT affiliated clubs who presents a valid home membership card with FIA/AIT LOGO, basic road assistance service on the road will be provided free of charge. Spare parts must be paid for.
Call #8139 (press each '#', '8', '1', '3', '9') to reach the nearest operation center automatically. This number is available from fixed & mobile phone which is based on touch-tone style except for 1 carrier in Japan: ASTEL. Alternatively call 0570 00 8139 accessible by all types of telephone except for PHS mobile phone (carrying the telephone number beginning at 070). On expressways use an emergency telephone. As there are a few road service companies other than JAF which run road assistance on expressways at commercial basis, any service calls based on FIA/AIT Reciprocity/Hospitality must be made at JAF. Otherwise service fee will be charged.

Towing service: If a car or a motorcycle can not be repaired on the spot, free towing service to the nearest garage is also available up to 15 km, but JPY 700 per every one km is payable if it exceeds this allowance.
