Shipping and Essentials
When shipping a vehicle you will need to fill out a Customs Form 1076. You will also need purchase invoice, original vehicle logbook and a copy of insurance over 6 months old.
If you need to bring back a pet you will need to obtain an import licence from the Department of Agriculture or else have a Pet Passport issued under the regulations of the European Parliament.
