Drivers urged to obtain documents allowing overseas travel as soon as possible

Date: 26 April 2017   |   Author: Daniel Puddicombe

Motorists have been urged by leasing company Arval to have the correct documentation as soon as possible when travelling abroad.

The leasing giant said it can take several days to process a VE103 'on hire' certificate, which is needed by anyone who wants to use a car that they don't own abroad.

In addition, the original document needs to be presented when overseas; photocopies are not allowed.

Arval claimed that it receives last-minute requests from travellers at ferryports every year which cannot be processed, and advised drivers to obtain the documentation as early as possible to avoid disappointment.

"Getting one is quite straightforward but we - and every other leasing company - require a little notice so that we can process the document," said Richard Cox, fleet consultant at Arval. "You may also be asked a few questions when contacting your leasing company, such as the dates you will be abroad, the countries you will be visiting, and whether any additional drivers will be using the car. This is just part of the process."?

The VE103 document is required for the following countries: Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malta, Moldova, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russian Federation, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and Ukraine.
