If you are running late and are likely to miss your ferry, we suggest proceeding to the port to see if the ferry company will allow you to change the ticket to a different day or departure time. Keep in mind that if you do miss your ferry, the tickets are non-refundable. So, your best bet is to try to use it for another time, if possible.

\r\n\r\nHere is where you can find detailed information about each ferry company’s various Central Agencies. These are the official offices where you will be able to make changes to your ferry tickets and find out all kinds of crucial information about your trip. Before departing, you booked and received your ferry tickets from Ferryscanner. However, the Central Agencies are physical places that you can go to in-person during your trip to amend your tickets while travelling within your home country or abroad.\r\n\r\nYou may notice that sometimes the Central Agencies are specific offices licensed for the ferry company, and other times they are travel agencies offering various kinds of tickets. Regardless, the addresses on this list will be able to adjust and amend your bookings. Feel free to give them a call beforehand to check their opening hours, especially if time is limited or you are on a small island. It is very helpful to have this kind of detailed information while travelling, because you never know what could happen. Perhaps you are enjoying your holiday so much that you decide you want to extend your trip? Or start island hopping rather than staying in one place? No problem! Head to the nearest Central Agency and they can assist you.\r\n\r\n

When pregnant, you're typically allowed to travel up to 36 weeks. However since most common pregnancy issues occur during the first and third trimester, the ideal time to travel is between 14 and 28 weeks. Depending on the specific route or type of ferry you're taking, a medical certificate may be required. We suggest getting in touch with us directly if you're unsure.

It is not required to confirm your trip before departure. If it would make you feel more comfortable though, you can always call the port authorities directly to check on your trip.

If you are travelling with a vehicle and you already have your tickets, we recommend arriving at the port at least 1 hour before your ferry's departure time. If you are travelling with a vehicle and you still need to collect your tickets, we recommend arriving at least 2 hours ahead of time. That way you won't be affected by any unexpected delays. For passengers travelling without a vehicle, arriving at the port 30 minutes prior to departure is perfectly fine. Keep in mind though, that if you require special assistance or are travelling with pets, you'll need a bit of extra time.

When travelling domestically within your passport country, a valid ID card is sufficient when boarding the ferry. However, if you are travelling internationally, you will need to have a valid passport with you. If you are planning to travel to a country that requires a visa, we suggest that you get in touch with your local embassy to start the process as soon as possible.

Keep in mind that due to the unique circumstances caused by COVID-19, an additional health form is required to travel by ferry at this time.

When driving abroad, there are a few documents that you need to carry with you at all times.

\r\n

A valid passport or ID card
A valid driver's license
Vehicle registration document (V5c)
Motor insurance certificate
If someone else's name is on the registration (for instance, if you are using a company car) then you'll need to have a letter authorizing you to drive the vehicle

\r\nAlso, it is not required, but it is highly recommended that you carry some specific equipment in the car in case of an emergency.\r\n

Warning triangle
Reflective jacket
Headlamp
Spare headlamp bulbs
First aid kit
Fire extinguisher

\r\n

Keep in mind that seat belts in the front and rear of the car are required for all passengers and the minimum age that a child has to be to sit in the front is 12 years old.

It will completely depend on the country that you're travelling to (or through)! Check the rules in advance, while starting to plan out your trip. Some countries require that visitor passports need to be valid for a specific period of time before entering - typically that is 6 months. If your passport is expiring sometime in the next few months, it is highly recommended to renew your passport as soon as possible.
