After getting Japan into the Entente, I used their fleet to fight the German Far East fleet. I won the battle, but some of the ships in the fleet were damaged. I returned them to port but found that I was not allowed to enact repairs on the Japanese ships.

Is there any way to repair the Japanese ships if they're damaged?

Are the repair buttons grayed out? If yes, what does say the toolitp?
Is the fleet in Japanese port?

Edit: also, I'm not sure 100%, but maybe only major powers can repair ships, because they have a budget.

Confirmed. Minor nations cannot repair ships.
See Modding\DBs\ProductionCosts.xls DB, rows RE1-RE3 for Minors: -1 (not allowed).

Thanks, that answers my question. It's not a big problem I suppose, as the Japanese fleet+the allied ships in the region can generally defeat the much smaller German fleet in the far east anyway.

It can be "corrected" by modding the values for "Minors" in ProductionCosts.xls DB (and saving in CSV format in the proper directory, of course)...
