This is the central document for your business. Unlike taxis, which can pick up customers on the fly (\u00abmarauding\u00bb), a VTC can only pick up a passenger if it can show proof of a prior booking<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to article L3122-9 of the French Transport Code, you must never have a customer on board (or be on your way to pick them up) without being able to show proof of reservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This document is not a quotation in the strict sense of the term. mission order<\/strong>. It serves as proof to the police that you are in fact carrying out a commissioned activity and not illegally seeking customers on the public highway. You must keep it for 3 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To be valid during a check, your booking form (paper or digital format on your chauffeur application) must mention :<\/p>\n\n\n\n Important note:<\/strong> Although the price is not legally required on the booking form for roadside checks<\/em>, We strongly recommend that you include it. This turns your booking form into a contract, sealing the agreement on the fare with the customer before the journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A quotation is a concept that comes under the consumer law<\/strong> and not the Transport Code. It is a commercial proposal detailing a service and its price. Once signed by the customer, it becomes a contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the vast majority of your daily errands (station transfers, airport transfers, intra-city journeys), you don't need to draw up a formal estimate - the booking form with the price is all you need. However, the law requires a quote in two specific cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As soon as a service provided to an individual exceeds an amount of 1 500 \u20ac<\/strong>, If you are travelling by air, it is compulsory to draw up a written estimate before concluding the contract. This is rarely the case for a simple Paris-Orly journey, but it is common if you are doing Availability (MAD)<\/strong> over several days, events, weddings or long-distance tourist tours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whatever the amount, if a customer asks you for a quote, you are obliged to provide one. This is a consumer right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As well as being an obligation, knowing how to draw up a good estimate is an essential commercial skill. For B2B customers or event organisers, a clear, professional quote is reassuring. This is often what makes the difference between a \u00abchauffeur\u00bb and a \u00abtransport contractor\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To avoid confusing the documents, you need to visualise the chronology of a VTC assignment. Each document has its place and its role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that the invoice must be a separate document from the booking form. It must contain specific information (unique invoice number, due date, late payment penalties, etc.). Above all, it must provide details of the service<\/strong> (departure, arrival, kilometres) to justify the application of the rate of VAT reduced to 10 %<\/strong> specific to passenger transport. Without this detail, a tax inspector could require the vehicle to be reclassified as a 20 % vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Not complying with these obligations exposes your company to serious risks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n To sum up, for your daily life as a VTC driver: never leave home without your reservation form<\/strong>. It's your life insurance against problems during a roadside check. Book it now quote<\/strong> for your top-of-the-range services, long-term provisioning or large amounts (over \u20ac1,500). Finally, never forget to issue your invoice<\/strong> after each race. Rigorous administrative management is the hallmark of true professionals and protects you in the event of a tax or administrative audit.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Is a VTC quote compulsory?
