Ask for your DRIVE CERTIFICATE and avoid difficulties, especially outside the Schengen area.

If you wish to use a vehicle outside the Schengen area, you usually need permission from the owner of the vehicle. This permission is preferably legitimized by the government. BREXIT/UK UPDATE 2022: the UK imposes stricter formalities, according to our information there is car document control performed by UK Customs. A drive certificate therefore is advised for persons travelling to the UK with a leased car. The vehicle's TPL insurance will also remain valid after if the UK is listed on the insurance card. However, drivers must at all times have their driving licence, insurance certificate and original registration certificate on board. ATTENTION: ALWAYS APPLY FOR YOUR CERTIFICATE 14 DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE.

Keep the following documents nearby

You'll need some very specific information to request a document. By having these documents ready, you'll be able to quickly fill out the forms.

Ask your CERTIFICATE

IDENTITY CARD or PASSPORT

Keep your IDENTITY CARD or Passport ready. The data on it will be compared with the data on your CERTIFICATE when you leave and/or enter the Schengen area. This mainly concerns your surname, first names and nationality. Make sure that your ID shows a MONEY ENDDATE. Your IDENTIFICATIONNUMMER of the National Register is an optional information when filling in the data for the application and the layout of a CERTIFICATE. It is wise but not mandatory to state this when applying for the CERTIFICATE.

REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE = REGISTRATION NUMBER PLATE

The VEHICLE REGISTRATION NUMBER + LICENCE PLATE DOCUMENT or a copy thereof shall be in the vehicle. Pick it up from the storage compartment in the vehicle. You need it here! The clear identification of the vehicle on the basis of the NUMBERPLATE is very important. You can also read the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) from that document. The owner of the vehicle will check and/or correct it before giving you permission. On the reverse side you can also read the vehicle's MARK and the TRADE NAME that you should mention in the MODEL box on your request.

Please note: in Belgium, the HOLDER of the registration licence number is not always the owner of the vehicle. For example, a leasing company will be the OWNER and the vehicle may be registered with another (legal) person. With the application you can call up an OWNER from the dropbox OWNERs that Renta Drive vzw manages and fill in the details of the HOLDER of the number plate. When checking, it is important that the holder of the number plate is also correctly filled in as the registration certificate therefore corresponds to the data on the CERTIFICATE!
