06/04/2021 – ATA Carnet / Manifest – Redline Transportation

As you may already know an ATA Carnet (import/export document) is required for Redline to transport your bikes to European events.

Good News is we will sort out those documents on your behalf, however there will be an associated cost, £40 per event/rider (ATA Carnet Fee) will be included in your booking (bike transportation option) If you book an event with us on 7th June 2021 and after.

On the downside an ATA Carnet must be very detailed that means when you fill out your “Manifest” file, you have to list every single item in your stillage and provide their “Description/Quantity/Weight/Value/Country of Origin/Good Types ID”. Unfortunately these are the rules now and we have to comply!

Hence we require all Redline Customers to fill out and submit their “Manifest” file per event/rider on our website latest 4 weeks before the bike drop off date for every track day event!

Please follow the steps below to submit your “Manifest File”:
  • Go to My Account / Orders and log in with your “Username/Email” and “Password”;
  • Click on your “Your Track Day Event Order #” or “View” (example: RIJEKA | 11/12/13 JUNE 2021);
  • Scroll down and find “MANIFEST” section for your track day event (example: RIJEKA | 11/12/13 JUNE 2021);
  • Click on “Download Manifest Template” and download the spreadsheet file;
  • Open the file with Microsoft Excel and fill it out after reading the instructions carefully;
  • Save the file as “YOURFULLNAME” on your computer;
  • Click on “Upload” function in “MANIFEST” section and submit your file;
  • When upload is completed, you will see your file in “1.ORDER#_YOURFULLNAME_RANDOMNUMBER” format on our website and YOU ARE DONE!
Prerequisites and Best Practices:
  • You will need a PC/notebook to submit your “Manifest File”;
  • You will need Microsoft Excel or similar (One Drive or Google Drive) to be able to edit/save the “Manifest File”;
  • You can re-submit your “Manifest File” as many times as you want before THE DEADLINE, just delete the old file first and then re-submit;
  • Do NOT forget to bring 2 printed copies of your “Manifest File” to bike collection point!
FAILING TO SUBMIT YOUR “MANIFEST FILE” ON OUR WEBSITE BEFORE GIVEN DEADLINE AND/OR PROVIDING INACCURATE/INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION IN YOUR “MANIFEST FILE” WILL RESULT CANCELLATION OF YOUR BOOKING AND NO REFUND!!!
