Travelling with a Hire Car on LeShuttle: What You Need to Know

Planning to travel with a hire car on LeShuttle? Here’s everything you need to ensure a smooth journey.

Check Your Permissions and Cover

Before setting off, confirm with your hire company that you are permitted to take the vehicle abroad. You must carry a VE103 certificate when travelling in a rented or leased vehicle. More information can be found here.

You’ll also need to ensure you have the necessary insurance and breakdown cover for your trip.

Booking Your Journey

LeShuttle’s reservation system allocates space based on vehicle dimensions, but we understand that you may not know the exact car you’ll receive until collection day. Fortunately, you don’t need a registration number when booking. Instead, you can reserve your space using the make and model or simply by selecting a vehicle type. Most hire companies can provide an approximate make and model in advance, which may help when booking.

Updating Your Booking

Once you’ve collected your hire car, you can add the vehicle registration number to your booking. This will help speed up the check-in process and ensure a hassle-free start to your journey.

By following these simple steps, you can enjoy a stress-free crossing with LeShuttle. Safe travels!
