If you take a UK-registered vehicle out of the country for less than 12 months, you must take documentation to show that you are authorised to possess the vehicle. This means you must carry the original Vehicle Registration Document (VRD) form V5 or Vehicle Registration Certificate (V5C) with you. If you have not received the V5C certificate, or the original has been lost, stolen or defaced, you can download the application for a vehicle registration certificate from the Directgov website (PDF, 226K).
If you take your vehicle out of the UK for more than 12 months (permanent export), you must notify the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) by completing Section C of the VRD showing the date you intend to export. You should then return the VRD to your local DVLA office. The DVLA will send you a certificate of permanent export (V561) as confirmation of your vehicle's registration.
If you have a V5C, you must complete and return the purple section (V5C/4). It is important that you take your registration certificate with you as you may have to hand it to the relevant authority when the vehicle is registered abroad.
If your vehicle is hired or leased, the supplier company is unlikely to release the original VRD to you. The alternative is to apply for a Vehicle on Hire Certificate (VE103), which you can carry instead. This certificate is authenticated proof of permission from the owner to take the vehicle abroad. A Vehicle on Hire Certificate is valid for one year and you can buy one from motoring organisations such as:
Automobile Association (AA)
British Vehicle Rental & Leasing Association
Fleet Transport Association
Green Flag
Royal Automobile Club (RAC)
Road Haulage Association
