Important Information Before Your Trip

Wherever your destination we want to make sure you enjoy your trip abroad and are not caught up in red tape. This portal allows you to place an order for a Foreign Travel Abroad Document (VE103) and also provides travel advice ensuring you are prepared and have the necessary documentation.

As you progress through this application you will be asked to confirm you understand your responsibilities and have the necessary travel documentation to support your trip.

VE103 (Vehicle on Hire Certificate) Guidance

I have read and understood the rules in relation to the VE103 certification

Important Information Before Your Trip

With the UK having left the EU, legalisation has changed meaning there are additional requirements to travel abroad. In addition to the VE103 certificate UK drivers may require the following items when driving in Europe

An International Driving Permit (IDP)

You do not need an IDP to drive in the EU, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein if you have a photocard driving licence issued in the UK.

You might need an IDP to drive in some EU countries and Norway if you have either:

• A paper driving licence
• A licence issued in Gibraltar, Guernsey, Jersey or the Isle of Man

You can obtain a permit in person over the counter at your local Post Office branch

A Green Card

• A Green card is no longer a requirement to drive in the EU however may be a requirement in other countries
• A Green card is proof you have third party liability insurance cover whilst driving in certain countries
• You will need to request the Green card from your vehicle insurance provider
• Insurance providers recommend you request your Green card a minimum of 4 weeks prior to traveL

GB Stickers

• UK Stickers are displayed on your vehicle, even if your number plate currently displays the GB Symbol.

Towing

• There are new rules applied when towing (trailers, caravans etc) please ensure you familiarise yourself with these rules prior to travel

We highly recommend you keep yourself up to date by visiting www.gov.uk/driving-abroad prior to travel.

I understand there may be additional documentation and agree to check prior to travel.

I have read and understood the above.
