Prior to travelling, you will require written authorisation from the registered owner (either LeasePlan or your employer depending on the ownership of the vehicle) if you intend to take your vehicle abroad. Outside of Ireland & the UK, we recommend all drivers to take out their own additional breakdown cover and also notify your insurance provider.

It is your responsibility to arrange and pay for adequate foreign travel breakdown insurance.

Please complete the form below to request written authorisation and a Driver Support Team member will respond as soon as possible. Alternatively you can email us directly at driversupport@leaseplan.ie

It is important to note that from the 1st of July 2012 all drivers visiting France will need to carry a breathalyser kit in their cars. They cost approx €2 - €3 and they will be available at ferry and tunnel terminals for crossings to France
