An O Licence is an important licence (operators licence ) and as explained in the video required by any vehicle in the UK that weighs more than 3500kg (3.5 Tonnes ) when doing domestic work or by any vehicle with an MAM (maximum Authorised mass ) of 2500kg or more doing work from the UK to and from the EU and doing any work with in the EU (this rule applies to any Vehicle weighing more than 2.5 tons when in the EU and doesn't matter what country they are from.
UK Vehicles have to display a disc in their windscreen Orange for the restricted O licence Blue standard national Green Standard international So the simple reason why it is important is because it is legally required And ERS Removal services LTD has a standard international O licence (interim for now)

Here are a few general travel tips for when traveling to Europe
Here are just a few quick tips I will add a few more soon And feel free to comment with your suggestions So how does the customs process relating to my house move to Europe from the UK work?
So despite what you may have seen on the news and on facebook and the likes since Brexit, yes there has been a drop in volumes though the ports but that doesn't mean moving to Europe is not possible here at ERS Removal services Ltd (European relocation services ) have managed 2 fully successful runs So I thought I would discuss with you the customs process involved for your move to the likes of Spain A few common questions So is there more paperwork involved in the customs process now than before Brexit ? yes there is as prior to Brexit there was no customs process per say where as there is now, in regards to the additional customs paperwork required we as your movers will sort the extra paperwork out. Will we need more information from you ? Yes we will and I can advise you what extra is needed when discussing your move with you prior to booking stages Will you need a more detailed inventory ? Yes we will (more advice can be found here by clicking the link )but feel free to ask questions www.europeanrelocationservices.co.uk/ourblog/updated-infomation-on-inventorys-re-brexit-2021 What is the customs process ? (UK to Spain) A you book your move with us B you send the requested documents and inventory C we send said documents to our customs agents in Spain and the UK D We then advise the UK agent (export ) when loaded that the van is loaded and they finalise the customs documents E We present the van to the UK boarder force /HMRC at the port to complete the paperwork side for the UK F The van checks in with the ferry G the van ships on the ferry to Europe H the van disembarks the ferry and stops at French passport control I the van transit France heading towards the Spanish boarder J the van presents to the Spanish customs station (at this stage our Spanish agents check the paperwork and send it to the Spanish government (so it is not until now we will know if any Iva and the likes will be generated for sure) k at this stage the Spanish customs may request to inspect the van L the van gets the discharge papers (discharging the T1 form that is used to transit France ) and we receive the Iva bill (if applicable ) and we pay it as received (if there is no Iva Bill or in rare cases a Tariff bill the holding fee we hold for you will be refunded) M the van transit though Spain to your delivery Spain to UK Is as above expect we also have to present outbound to a customs clearance station to be cleared for the load to leave Spain where as in the UK it is usual done remotely So the above is just a summary some stages are more involved than others but you don't need to worry as we win handle the customs processes as part of the move *And of course until either Covid ends or France change entry requirements for Freight drivers the team/crew on the van will have a PCR after loaded and before heading to the port In the seven or so years we have been in operation (first as Clark trading and logistics and as our Spanish Brand European relocation services ) the van/S we have operated have got about below is just a few examples of the places we have been
