Important paperwork requirements
So in a few weeks we're off on an adventure to the wilds of North Africa, but to get there we'll all need the correct paperwork. Most you'll already have and some will be new and needed either before we leave on as we enter Morocco.
So what you all need
- A valid Passport
- Vehicle Ownership Documents
- Travel Insurance (not mandatory but silly to travel without)
- Driving Licence
- Vehicle Insurance
- Ferry Tickets UK to Spain
- EHIC Card
- Immigration Cards
- TVIP or D16
- Fiches (I emailed a template to you a while ago)
Immigration Cards
We'll get these when we collect the ferry tickets into Morocco or they are available on the boat. These need completing for immigration control on the boat. Once on the boat we que up with the cards and passports and go through passport control before we actually arrive. Simples
TVIP/D16
Temporary Vehicle Importation Form is required to import your truck into Morocco and gives the vehicle a 6 month stay on one D16. The importation is linked to your passport and you are both expected to leave together or pay import duties!
The form can be filled in once we arrive. After leaving the ferry we drive up to customs and hope they are being reasonably efficient. You get directed to a customs area and passport, v5's will be checked. You can know fill in the form, but there is an easier option..............
Do it online in the comfort of you own home

Fill in form, print off, take with you. When you get to customs hand it over. Bish Bash Bosh we're on our way
Fiches
Fill in the template I sent you print A4 cut into separate fisches. We will go through some police/military check points so a handful of these will save time, simply hand over passport and fiche when asked. If you don't have them you'll get asked the same info and have to wait while its written down
