Vehicle on Hire Certificate (VE103)

All UK motorists travelling abroad in a vehicle must carry the original Vehicle Registration Document (V5). If your vehicle is leased from Days Contract Hire then we hold the V5, which means you need a Vehicle on Hire Certificate (VE103), which is the recognised alternative to the V5 document. It also covers you whilst proceeding to, and returning from, the port of embarkation.

It is valid for 12 months from the date of issue and will cover you for all your foreign travel within that 12 month period.

Don’t risk going without a VE103 – In a high profile case last year a vehicle without a VE103 was impounded for four days while the original copy of the V5 was mailed out to the local police station. The driver had a letter of authority with him but this was not accepted.

You must apply for your VE103 at least 7 working days before you travel.
