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
- Your original VE103 certificate and letter of authority must always be with you whilst driving the vehicle abroad
- You will be sent a PDF copy of your VE103 certificate. This copy is for information purposes only, it cannot be used in place of the original certificate
- The VE103 certificate is valid for the main driver and any other named driver/s whilst accompanied by the main driver
- If another individual drives the vehicle without the main driver present, they require their own individual certificate
- The name and address listed on the VE103 certifcate must match the name and address on the main drivers driving licence
- The VE103 Certificate is valid for a year, however the driver can travel for no more than 90 consecutive days outside of the United Kingdom. If they need to extend this they will need to discuss this with their fleet/driver services and speak to their insurers.
