Driving to Spain via Dover Calais

[TONCAZ]

Afternoon all
Shortly driving to Murcia from Manchester, going our normal route down west side of France.
Had a look on the .Gov site and from what I read we don't need a test, we have both just had our boosters.
Do we need a point of destination paperwork or can we just crack on and drive through France?

Oh and what's the score with Blind spot stickers?

Cheers in advance.

Lots of differing views about the Angles Mortes Stickers obviously if your 3.5tonnes you don't need them if you're over you are supposed to have them BUT the French being the French will either agree or disagree with the law
Most French trucks I've seen have them but as I've not seen a French motorhome this year can't comment

I personally will get them as I do know a few gendarmes personally from where we used to go regularly in France and the feeling is if the British haven't got them then the Gendarmes in the North will pounce on an easy target

Remember your UK sticker for rear of van. Just get to Calais and keep on going. Oh and enjoy!

there is some paperwork to sort re vaccination proof and as for angles morte there is all sorts of interpretations.

there are lots of threads on both subjects.
