Driving a JDM to France

[Olympian]

I am planning to drive to France. I know that V5C is needed. A clean air sticker is needed.......

As my car is a JDM. The vehicle details in the V5C is not as detail as a UKDM (my pervious car). Will it be a trouble when i apply for the sticker and will they ( French Officers) check my V5C when i cross the borders?

Thank you

Hi @Olympian, did you find the answers to this? Interested to know as I'm planning something similar for the future. Thanks in advance! 🙂

Just for info on this if anyone is looking to do this. I regularly take my JDM to Europe and have got the Crit Air sticker as mentioned above. As you say the v5c is not as detailed as you say but I have been stopped by the Gendarmerie in France and the GNR in Portugal (National Guard) and had no issues. The borders in France not interested in v5c.

Hope that helps.
