I have shipped a car before from Hull to Rotterdam and it was towed on by the shipping company. Mine drives just doesn't have an MOT.

I suspect that the previous shipment was pre-brexit? So, yes Stena will take an un-accompanied vehicle, 'off-peak' on the 11:30 am sailing it costs £151.39 inc. VAT. In order to travel as 'freight' however it now needs a G.M.R. or Goods Movement Reference number. The shipper/vendor would normally be a commercial/business entity and now have all that in place. There is some provision for personal / private access to the system, which is administered by HMRC, through the medium of 'intermediary' services. I have stopped at that point and not yet rung HMRC to enquire further. The above gleaned from Stena and the Trader Support Service. Apologies to Peaklander if we are diverging somewhat! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blanco Get your point completely and hadn't even considered the cross border situation I was merely thinking about the transportation. Should be easier if it goes to NI first before Eire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a solution though..... I have to come and get it and drive it on the ferry myself,..... but it mustn't cost me more than €430 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
