From 1 January 2021, customers renting in the United Kingdom will not be allowed to drive into any other European country and vice versa.

Driving between the United Kingdom (England, Scotland and Wales) into Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland and vice versa are not affected by this change and will still be allowed, subject to the express permission of Hertz and subject to conditions.

If you wish to take a UK registered vehicle into the Republic of Ireland, you are required by law to be in possession of:

1-     a VE103B certificate which is proof Hertz has permitted the vehicle to travel outside of the United Kingdom and;

2-     a Green Card which is a proof of insurance and must contain the vehicle registration. An advance notice of 12 working days is required for obtaining/issuing a Green Card.

The VE103B certificate and the Green Card are not required for travelling to Northern Ireland.

The cover can only be purchased at time of pick-up.

Should these restrictions be ignored, all insurance (Third Party Liability, CDW, TP, PI, Super Cover), if accepted, shall be null and void. The driver will be held fully responsible in case of accidents and will bear all consequences, including the cost of repatriation of the damaged vehicle.
