Help Confused with all info
Hi every one,
Hope someone can help. I'm confused with how to find information on here.
Basicly I need to know what paperwork I need to travel in Europe and Scandinavia? I'm a UK passport holder, riding a F800gs with camping equipment and cloths, camera and helmet cam.
I just want to do Europe as a trial run, maybe find some work along the way. Do I need a work visa for all the countries I'll be visiting?
Thanks Mark

Mark, as a resident of the EU you need no Visa for the other EU countries, Passport is all you need

Hello Mark,
Just your PP, V5 Log book, bike insurance - no need for the green card but inform your insurer of the dates you are away. NHS European health card from the post office. Rac, Green flag or AA brealdown cover and if you fancy it - travel insurance.
That would see you sorted right out.
Have a great time
Paul

You need a green card if something happens. Or if you are asked to prove that you have an insurance.

If you look on the back (or front ) of your insurance certificate it may tell you which countries it covers (replaces the old green card) and it may say that in a number of different languages too. :-)

Check with any of the UK motoring organisations such as AA or RAC and they will tell you exactly what you need in terms of insurance, breakdown kit, first aid kit etc etc etc.
