Eurotunnel

Eurotunnel In order to check-in, you will need the following:
  • Eurotunnel confirmation with booking reference number
  • Valid passport for each passenger
  • A Driving license for each Vehicle Driver
  • Proof of Car insurance
  • Car registration documents

*Your booking reference number is included with your travel documents. Please quote your booking reference number when you check-in to receive your ticket. Alternatively, proceed to the self check-in lane, and you will obtain a booking pass by typing your eight-digit Eurotunnel booking reference on the machine.

You must arrive at least 45 minutes prior to your booked departure time, to allow for check-in procedures and passport control.


Notes:

  • French law requires you carry a driving license, proof of insurance and car registration documents at all times whilst driving.
  • Vehicles powered by LPG and dual-powered vehicles will not be accepted on Eurotunnel.
  • Please be aware that the Eurotunnel train on which you are booked is the train on which you should travel. There is a two hour "grace period" either side, during which you will be placed on the next available train (depending on space). If you arrive outside this period, Eurotunnel will make every effort to get you a crossing as soon as possible, although this may involve a considerable wait and/or an increase in price. We therefore strongly advise that, where possible, any changes to your travel arrangements are made with us as early as possible (preferably before the day of travel), so as to avoid any complications at the terminal.

Cancellation Conditions:

  • If any Eurotunnel cancellation is made less than 14 days before the date of outward travel, the full Eurotunnel rate shall be charged.
  • If any Eurotunnel cancellation is made between 14 and 56 days before the date of outward travel, 50% of the Eurotunnel rate shall be charged.
