VNF Licence for French waterways online

[Salty.savage]

Has any one managed to book on line for a VNF licence ?

Have done so in the past. Not for a couple of years though.

Last did it in 2015. No problems as I recall.

As above. Created an account with the boat details, then ordered the appropriate length of time vignette. You get it in PDF form by email and just print it out and display it.

It isn't encrypted, which is rather quaint. I suggest you use 3G or your private, home WiFi when you order the vignette as any details supplied will be transmitted in plain text. It's very poor practice, but just make sure you use a credit card so you're protected.

Not that I suggest you behave as I do, but I sail French waters/canals without papers. Never been asked to show papers. No problem so far.
