Carnet (RAC) - Proof of the vehicle location
Hi everyone, I rode my bike to Central Asia during the last few months and next I'll hitchhike around China and India during winter leaving the bike here, before coming back here next year and ride it to Siberia.
My problem is that I just sent the Carnet back home to get my refund and apparently I forgot to fill the the Certificate of Location in the last page of my Carnet. So now RAC is telling me that if this has not been stamped then I will need to provide some proof of the vehicles location in the form of shipping documents etc. Does anyone here knows how to get this done in Kyrgyzstan or somewhere else in Central Asia? My Carnet only expires in December by the way.
Other option is to ship the bike to South Africa from Malaysia and ride back home through Africa (just an idea), so I could extend the Carnet one more year, but I was wondering if I have to pay another 1000 euros or not. Anyone here did this, and if so can you tell me how it works. Cheers. Pedro
