John, I think you are probably right with Bosnia, because they are not part of the EU. Like Lenny I normally get a paper print out of the MOT.

I had our van MOT done a couple of weeks ago and had a MOT print out-not embossed or anything and on thin print paper but signed off by the MOT chappie. I suppose there is also a DVLA data file of it somewhere(y)

For years, I only ever carried Copies of the documentation and presented them several times to (Spanish) police (Guardia). They never questioned the fact that they where copies? (mind they where damn good!)

The Originals where kept in the safe. and Once even left at home!. It will be interesting when the latest incarnation of MOT get under way. as they are NO LONGER issuing Paper ones.

H~How about printing you insurance Document on a green paper sheet. That would stop the nit picking person demanding a green card. All my insurance covers me Europe wide but I haven't been there.

Not sure that is correct. On the back of my insurance certificate for the Motorhome it states that cover extends to any member of the EU plus Bulgaria, Iceland Liechtenstein, Norway, Romania and Switzerland. Same with my new Scooter's insurance. I am told I don't need anything more.
Correct - been like this for quite some time. My company car insurance certificate always had something to the effect that the certificate also satisfied the requirements of the green card - in several languages
