How to Update Your Vehicle Registration or License Plate Details for Your Ferry Booking
If you need to update your vehicle registration or license plate details on your ferry booking, there are several processes you can follow depending on your travel schedule and the timing of your request.
Updating Vehicle Registration at the Port (Day of Travel)
You can update your vehicle registration at the port on the day of your ferry sailing. When you arrive at the port, speak with the port staff or ferry personnel, and they will assist you with making the necessary changes. This option is especially useful if there were last-minute changes to your vehicle details or if you couldn’t update them online or through customer support in advance.
What Happens if Your Sailing Is About to Depart?
If your sailing is close to departure and system amendments can no longer be processed online or by contacting customer support, you can still update your booking details at the port upon arrival. This ensures that last-minute changes to your registration or related information are addressed even if time is tight.
Making Changes to Registration Details Before Your Travel Date
For updates made before your travel date, you can modify your car registration or license plate information through the AFerry platform or by contacting customer support. If you are traveling with P&O Ferries:
Updates to vehicle registration information are free of charge as long as the replacement vehicle falls within the same category or has similar dimensions.
Changes involving a larger vehicle or a different category may incur additional fees.
All amendments must be completed before your scheduled sailing date and time to avoid potential issues during check-in.
General Tips for Updating Vehicle Registration
Plan Ahead: Whenever possible, update your vehicle registration early to prevent delays or complications close to your sailing.
Verify Vehicle Dimensions: Ensure that your vehicle’s category and dimensions remain the same to avoid additional fees when modifying bookings.
Day-of Updates: Arrive at the port early if you plan to make changes on the same day as your sailing.
