Passports and Visas
British citizens require a full passport for travel to or through any
of the countries featured in this brochure. British passports can be
obtained from Passport Offices in London, Peterborough, Liverpool,
Newport, Glasgow, Durham or Belfast (phone 0870 5210410 for
all offices). Applications for passports should be sent in at least 28
working days prior to departure. The Passport
Offices website address is
www.passport.gov.uk.

British licence holders when driving in Poland and Slovenia and also in
the Czech Republic unless holding a photocard licence.
In Portugal and the Netherlands photographic identification
documents, ie, passports must be carried at all times. Failure to do
so can result in an on-the-spot fine. In Austria, drivers with paper
licences should carry their passports for photographic identification.
A Camping Card International is, therefore, essential to provide a
form of security at the campsite. It is now compulsory to use dipped
headlights on motorways and major roads in Italy, Czech Republic,
Slovenia, Slovakia, Sweden, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, Hungary,
Norway, Poland and Austria at all times and this is recommended for
most countries.
