To travel abroad in Europe, you will require a Department of Transport VE103b Vehicle on Hire Certificate (Issued by TCH Leasing), which provides proof of use from the vehicle owner. and European Breakdown Cover. In the event of an additional driver using the vehicle unaccompanied by the holder of the VE103B, an individual certificate is required. We would recommend that travel insurance is purchased and that you do so through a reputable source.

 

The vehicle manufacturer may provide some limited cover for Europe, please refer to vehicle handbook for details of terms and conditions. TCH Leasing can provide comprehensive European Breakdown Cover once manufacturer cover has expired for TCH maintained agreements.
