present terms of passenger transport by sea which have been expressly incorporated hereinto.
3.1.- The passenger ticket and the boarding pass
The passenger ticket (the “Ticket”) is personal and non-transferable and may be issued in electronic format. The agreement for passenger transport by sea is made effective with the payment of the ticket duly issued by DFDS, understanding that the passenger, by simply using such a ticket for transport, expressly accepts all the terms and conditions thereof, including the present conditions for passenger transport.
Only those individuals who have a ticket and boarding pass for the date, time and route indicated thereunder shall board the ships. Any passenger holding a ticket issued under the name of another person shall be considered as a ticketless passenger and, therefore, shall be obliged to promptly pay the price of such a ticket, not with standing any further reports made by DFDS to the authorities and the consequent liabilities.
Any sale tickets issued shall subject to specific terms which must be duly published and should be consulted from time to time. All passengers shall make sure that they are aware of any particular terms regarding the chosen fare. Sale tickets sold may not be changed or returned. Passengers shall have any lawfully required
documents for entry in the destination country as may be required by DFDS staff for mere verification, indemnifying DFDS against liabilities in case that the authorities of the said country consider that the documents submitted by any passenger are insufficient and/or not valid for entry. In any case, passengers shall
have a valid national ID card or any document which certifies their identity, and/or travel permit or visa, and/or passport, valid for at least three months after the expected departure date from the Schengen territory, and shall have been issued within 10 years prior to the date of entry.
The ticket price does not include on-board food, drinks or any kind of living expenses, nor any other services not expressly included in the fare chosen. If, after purchasing or booking the ticket for a given date and route, the passenger whose name appears therein wishes to make cancellations or modifications, they may obtain
a refund depending on the route, any penalties applicable at the moment of the request (which may be checked in the applicable price list and in the terms of cancellation made public). Any refunds requested by the passenger shall be made effective in the same currency as the corresponding tickets were purchased.
DFDS is hereby indemnified against any loss of tickets or boarding passes. The passenger must keep both documents throughout the journey. For any claims, the passenger must submit a copy of the travel ticket and of the boarding pass, otherwise their complaint may not be processed.

3.2- Where to book and purchase tickets Tickets enabling passenger transport in DFDS vessels may be purchased by calling the following DFDS booking phone numbers: +34.956.68.18.30/+34.956.63.72.82/+212.53 9.94.26.12/+49.461.8.46.03; in travel agencies; in DFDS Points of Sale; on DFDS website www.dfds.com;www.frs.ma and in the Ports of Departure of Algeciras, Ceuta, Tarifa,

3.3.- Basic, reduced, sale and special fares DFDS offers transport services subject to their general, sale and/or special fares, which are duly published in all selling points, official DFDS Points of Sale and in the company website. The terms and conditions of such fares shall be displayed together with the above. DFDS
reserves the right to modify the said fares without prior notice. Entitlement to reduced fares may be exercised
by those passengers who, at the required moment, exhibit original documents or certified copies thereof, which certify any personal situations entitling them to enjoy the said reductions. Specifically, passengers may submit, where applicable, their ID cards, passports, military ID cards and/or large family
cards as follows:
a) Large family: There are reductions applied to use of regular sea transport lines for large families in virtue of
Spanish Royal Decrees 1621/2005 of Dec 30, which approves Regulations of Spanish Law 40/2003 of Nov 18, on large family protection. In order to enjoy such a reduction, the interested parties must exhibit their large family cards or any documents which duly certify such status and the corresponding category within.
b) Residents: From Nov 1, 2014, in accordance with Spanish Royal Decree-Law 1/2014, any sea carriers issuing tickets subsidised for residents of non-peninsular territories (Ceuta, Melilla, Balearic and Canary Islands) have been incorporated into the electronic system of residence certification (SARA) in all sales channels.
The valid ID documents for verification under SARA electronic system shall be as follows:

– For citizens of Spain, Switzerland, EU Member States or signatory Countries of the Agreement on the European Economic Area: A valid ID card or passport.
– For relatives of citizens of EU Member States or signatory Countries of the Agreement on the European Economic Area: A Spanish residency card for EU citizens’ relatives.
– For third-country citizens who are long-term residents: A foreigners’ ID card certifying long-term resident status. There are several cases in which it is not possible to prove residency through SARA and it is necessary to
exhibit the original documents. Thus, DFDS strongly recommends carrying any residency certificates in all cases and, especially:
– When travelling with children below 14 years old who have no ID card, in which case the children’s residency certificates must be exhibited.
– When residency has never been checked electronically, or there has been a recent change of
address.
– When the system has ever notified of a problem regarding the passenger’s residence.
c) Military forces: DFDS offers discounts for military staff or members of the Forces of Security of the State who are covered by an agreement signed with DFDS and travel at the expense of the State or their own in regular lines within Spain. Any special fares are subjected to the agreements in force executed between the State and DFDS for such purposes.
3.4.- Luggage
Every passenger’s luggage can be carried, provided that they do not contain goods subject to or susceptible of being marketed. Luggage carried within or on any vehicle boarded and, in general, any luggage that passengers keep with themselves, under their custody or control throughout the journey, shall be subjected to the above. In short, no lugagge may be permitted on board unless it is not intended for marketing or sale. Checked luggage, including vehicles, is subjected to the published fares. No liabilities may be accepted for items owned by the passengers which have not been previously placed under the Captain’s custody with an express statement of their nature and value.
No dangerous goods may be boarded without prior declaration of their nature to DFDS and without the consent of the latter for transport. Said goods must be properly marked and labelled in compliance with the regulations in force for each type of any such goods. Even where the said dangerous goods have been properly declared and boarded, these may be unloaded, destructed or transformed in harmless goods whenever implying an actual risk for any individual or object, with no entitlement to compensation, in virtue of article 232 of the Law of Marine Navigation (Law 14/2014 of Jul 24).
3.5.- Vehicle carriage
Any vehicles boarded by passengers shall be considered Checked luggage and shall be subjected under the corresponding passenger ticket to the same regime of liabilities and custody as that of the passenger.
Each passenger may only board with one single vehicle, provided that the said vehicle does not contain goods or items subject to or susceptible of being marketed. Any vehicle suspected by the crew of containing any such goods shall be denied boarding and must be carried as load, under the protection of the corresponding bill of
lading. In such a case, if a passenger refuses to board with their vehicle as load, once they have paid for its carriage, they shall not be entitled to any refund.
Sightseeing coaches, lorries, cargo lorries, with or without driver, as well as any kind of trailer, semitrailer and, in general, any vehicles other than private cars and those which are not in proper condition to circulate, shall be carried as load.

consulted and directly paid at the boarding port. In this respect, the total height of the vehicle shall be that reflected in the vehicle papers plus the height of any luggage loaded or tied up on it by the passenger.
If the vehicle to be boarded with must be applied a booking code or fare other than indicated in the ticket, the passenger’s entitlement to board said vehicle shall cease with no possibility to obtain a refund for the ticket purchased. To be able to board with the vehicle, the passenger must pay the difference and any management
fees which become applicable. Vehicle loading and unloading is performed by passengers themselves under their sole responsibility, always in compliance with the ship crew’s instructions and parking in the place
indicated. For safety reasons, the passenger shall leave the vehicle in first gear, hand-braked and locked.
Throughout the journey, it is prohibited to enter the car deck, except when duly announced rounds are organised and in the company of a crew member.
Any passenger who wishes to board with their vehicle must have all necessary documents available for unloading and customs control at the destination port. DFDS is hereby indemnified against responsibilities in case the vehicle papers exhibited by the passenger are incomplete or incorrect, according to the authorities of the destination country. All costs derived from vehicle loading, unloading and customs distpatch are to be borne by the passenger. Any costs incurred for damages caused by the vehicle to the ship or any third parties shall be borne directly by the passenger.

The above shall be subjected to Spanish Law 8/2003 of Apr 24 on animal health and its framework of offences and penalties, Law 43/2002 of Nov 20 on plant health and Law 33/2011 of Oct 4 on public health, not with standing any further liabilities of general, criminal character or otherwise which passengers may incur when carrying any of the above forbidden products.
3.7.- Terms and conditions for boarding Passengers shall show up at the port boarding offices 90 minutes before the departure time indicated in the ticket to collect their boarding passes and exhibit any documents required for the journey. Failure to exhibit any documents required for the journey and/or by the destination country may result in denied boarding with no right to a refund of the ticket price. In the same way, passengers shall show up in time to follow as many instructions and procedures prior to boarding as may be indicated by DFDS staff. Any passenger who, for any reason unconnected to DFDS, does not board the ship, shall not be refunded the price of their ticket. DFDS shall determine the “due time for boarding admission” after which boarding shall be denied to any passenger who has not collected their boarding pass. For boarding admission,

DFDS is hereby indemnified against liabilities for denied boarding of passengers showing up after the due time for boarding admission.
3.8.- Route DFDS may freely execute its carriage services by following the route and itinerary as it deems
convenient, unless otherwise agreed, and may change course to save or try to save human lives or goods in the sea, or make as many stops and course changes as deemed necessary by the Captain for the best common interests.

4.1.- Request for Accessibility Assistance

Accessibility assistance may be requested at ports, travel agencies or via email to [email protected] on ticket booking or purchase. With the aim of arranging proper assistance and personalised information on the types of
accessibility assistance services available on each vessel, as well as adapting the said services to the applicant’s requirements, any passengers with disabilities and/or reduced mobility are encouraged to promptly notify of
their needs, at least 48 hours prior to boarding. Each passenger shall receive a confirmation by DFDS acknowledging successful receipt of the notice on the assistance needs. When no request for assistance is made, DFDS shall make their best efforts to provide proper assistance for passengers with disabilities and/or reduced mobility to board, deboard and travel in the ship for which the ticket has been purchased, or in any other ship which best meets the passenger’s special needs. In order to successfully process the assistance request, DFDS must have been informed of the passenger’s needs. On ticket sale or booking, any passenger with special accessibility or assistance requirements must choose one of the following options:
• Passenger travelling on their own wheelchair and occupying a place designated therefor.
• Passenger travelling on a folding wheelchair and occupying a regular seat.
• Passenger with impaired hearing or vision, with or without support dog.
• Passenger with reduced mobility. In case any such passenger is assigned a regular seat, the wheelchair should be folding to enhance carriage thereof. If any passenger does not leave their wheelchair throughout the journey, there are areas provided with anti-slip flooring, anchoring and seatbelts to ensure a safe journey.
In case a transit wheelchair is required for transfers at the port and/or access the ship, it must be requested on ticket booking or purchase. In case there are simultaneous passengers with special requirements, DFDS undertakes to arrange the proper assistance to promptly meet the needs notified.

passengers with disabilities and/or reduced mobility and their companions may wait at the carriage/pre-boarding room until any member of DFDS staff signals them to board the ship. Moreover, DFDS staff shall offer assistance to access the ship and carry their lugagge. Once on board, in case any passenger with disabilities and/or reduced mobility wishes to travel on their wheelchair, a staff member shall take them to the designated area. In case any such passenger prefers a regular seat, the staff will arrange it and proceed to the seating. Should boarding be denied in order to comply with the safety requirements set forth by the authorities or because safe boarding is impossible, the affected passenger may choose between a refund and an alternative route, subject to compliance with all safety requirements. Upon request, the reasons for any such denied boarding shall be notified in written form to the person with disabilities and/or reduced mobility.

Therefore, any
such passenger must hold all certificates required by the authorities for both departure from and return to Spain, indemnifying DFDS against liabilities for a dog denied deboarding at the arrival port by the corresponding authorities.
In all cases, the passenger shall be entirely responsible for the boarded support dog, which must be fully equipped at all times while on board and at the boarding/deboarding areas with a muzzle, short lead and collar, and remain next to its owner or holder. Support dog travel is free of charge and the passenger shall inform the company of their need to travel with the dog on ticket booking or purchase.

Any such passenger shall inform the company of their intention or need to travel with domestic animals on ticket booking or purchase and at least 4 hours before the expected departure. Whenever applicable, DFDS shall inform passengers of the feasibility of boarding and carrying domestic animals. Registered support dogs are the only animals authorised to travel at the passengers’ area. Passengers must ensure compliance with the requirements applicable to animal travel and have the necessary documents at hand. The owner of or passenger to whom the pet accompanies shall be solely liable for holding all necessary documents and checking them before boarding, as well as making sure that the animal can enter the boarding and deboarding ports and that there are no prohibitions as regards deboarding of such a pet at the ports of call or arrival. Therefore, any such passenger must hold all certificates required by the authorities for both departure from and return to Spain, indemnifying DFDS against liabilities for an animal denied deboarding at the arrival port by the corresponding authorities. Depending on the length and specificities of the journey, DFDS reserves the right to modify pet carriage conditions in virtue of any specific
requirements. Pet carriage may be subject to specific fares which shall be published together with the rest of passenger fares.

that of the foetus. A validly issued certificate must be dated and signed by the doctor within 7 days prior to the date of departure.

The said document shall be requested at any police stations prior to the departure date. In such a case, any individuals exercising guardianship of the minors at the moment in which the journey takes place shall be held responsible for them. DFDS does not provide a service to accompany minors on board, so, to ensure the protection of minors in their own best interest, minors under
the age of 14 are not permitted to travel alone, but must under all circumstances and without exception be accompanied by an adult, i.e. a person over the age of 18 years
Any such minor’s parents, guardians and/or representatives shall ensure to hold all required documents ready for exhibition or submission at the arrival port, indemnifying DFDS against liabilities incurred in case the authorities consider such documents insufficient.

The Captain may adopt as many disciplinary measures as they deem convenient to maintain the order in the ship and to ensure safety of everybody on board.
