Taking a Minibus Abroad

Taking a minibus abroad is complicated and involves a considerable amount of preparation since different regulations apply. The driver may have to take a further DSA driving test for passenger carrying vehicles, the vehicle may need modifications, and additional insurance will probably be required.

There are unlikely to be any cost savings overall, and little if any advantage.

We strongly advise you to consider hiring a bus and driver from a reputable coach hire company. However, if you do need to make a minibus journey outside the UK, please consult the TravelWise Road Safety Unit for further advice on:
