Fuel Cans

As per the latest Marine Guidance Note (MGN 545), customers can carry the following:

For travel from the UK to the Continent and Republic of Ireland (UK to Northern Ireland can ship both ways)

• a maximum of 5 litres of petrol / diesel per vehicle
• in an approved container i.e. container sold for the purpose of fuel transportation only (red/green plastic can).
• in a private vehicle not in commercial use.

For travel from the Continent to the UK:

• fuel cans, if carried, must be empty
• customers must ensure that the fuel can is washed and that no residue remains as it is the fumes that are the risk.
