In that case, you’ll need to request permission to drive outside the European Union and get a ‘Travel Certificate’. This document proves that KBC Autolease has authorised you to drive the lease vehicle. In some countries, the government has to approve this authorisation first. If you can’t prove that you’re authorised to drive the lease vehicle, the authorities may seize it.
Keep in mind that you need authorisation not only for the country to which you are travelling, but also for any countries you drive through on your way there.
Countries that often request proof of authorisation include:
- United Kingdom
- Morocco
- Turkey
- Tunisia
You don’t need a travel certificate for Switzerland and Norway, even though these countries are not part of the European Union.
