    BACKGROUND

    The people of Holland declared their independence from Spain in 1579; during the 17th century, they became a leading seafaring and commercial power, with settlements and colonies around the world. After a 20-year French occupation, a Kingdom of Holland was formed in 1815. In 1830 Belgium seceded and formed a separate kingdom. Holland remained neutral in World War I, but suffered invasion and occupation by Germany in World War II. A modern, industrialized nation, the Netherlands is also a large exporter of agricultural products. The country was a founding member of NATO and the EEC (now the EU), and participated in the introduction of the euro in 1999.

    LOCATION

    Western Europe, bordering the North Sea, between Belgium and Germany


    CLIMATE OF HOLLAND

    Mild, maritime climate. Summers in Holland are generally warm with changeable periods, but excessively hot weather is rare. Winters can be fairly cold with the possibility of some snow. Rainfall is prevalent all year.

    DRIVING IN HOLLAND

    Children in cars: children under four cannot travel unless they use a suitable restraint system. Children between four and 12 cannot travel in the front unless using a suitable restraint system.

    Documentation: always carry your driving licence, vehicle registration document (V5), and certificate of motor insurance. If your licence does not incorporate a photograph ensure you carry your passport to validate the licence. If the vehicle is not registered in your name, carry a letter from the registered owner giving you permission to drive.

    Drinking and driving: Don't do it. Over 0.05 per cent and you could face anything up to imprisonment.

    Fines: On the spot fines are issued. Ensure an official receipt is issued by the officer collecting the fine.

    First-aid kit is advised, but not compulsory.

    Fuel: All grades of unleaded petrol, diesel and LPG are available as well as lead substitute additive. No leaded. It is allowed to carry petrol in a can. Credit and debit cards are widely accepted, although they probably won't work at automatic pumps. It's a good idea to let your card issuer know you will be travelling abroad. This ensures they don't suspend your card if they spot it being used in unfamiliar places, which they sometimes do as an anti-fraud measure.

    GB sticker: UK registered vehicles displaying Euro-plates (circle of 12 stars above the national identifier on blue background) no longer need a GB sticker when driving in European Union countries.

    Headlamp converters are compulsory.

    Horns are widely used to warn other vehicles of your approach, although they are officially banned in built-up areas.

    Lights: dipped headlights must be used in poor daytime visibility, and in all tunnels at all times. They must also be used when on motorways, dual carriageways, and on all out of town roads. Motorcycles must use dipped headlights during the day at all times.

    Minimum age for driving, provided you hold a full UK licence, is 18 for a car and for a motorcycle over 125cc. If you've got an old-style all-green licence you might find the police will not understand them, so either get them up-dated or take an International Driving Permit as well.

    Motorcycle drivers and passengers must wear crash helmets.

    Motor insurance: third-party insurance is compulsory. A green card is not required but your insurer should be advised of your trip.

    Seat belts are compulsory for front and rear seat occupants, if fitted.

    Speed limits: From 1 January 2003 some three-lane motorways with emergency lanes may have a speed limit of 93mph (150km/h).

    Visibility Vests are now compulsory in France, Italy, Austria, Belgium, Norway, Portugal and Spain (and likely to become compulsory throughout the EU). The rules vary from country to country concerning number of vests required and whether they should be carried in the car or boot. Common sense suggests that there should be a vest for every occupant, and that the vests should be carried in the car, and put on before getting out. Do this and you will not have a problem.

    Warning triangle is compulsory.

    We serve many countries in Europe for deliveries including : freight to Germany , freight to Holland , freight to Sweden , freight to Spain , freight to Poland , freight to Italy , freight to Hungary , freight to Switzerland , freight to Austria , freight to Netherlands , freight to Denmark
