It was a tough journey, with many unknowns and many unforseen events. After not being able to get the technical authorisation without getting the medical veterinary authorisation, and almost having to pay twice for the technical one because it took much longer than expected to get the veterinary one, we received both.
Then we had another struggle, the ambulance needed to be registered, but we cannot do that without many many documents from the village-hall and the finances ministry, where we had another shock, we were asked to pay taxes for the value of the ambulance. After our accountant called at the ministry of finances, and she was told we don't have to because it was bought from a private person, they found another reason for which we should pay taxes, the ambulance was registered in Germany on a different person than the one selling it, so we should get the contract from the owner .... which is impossible.
In the end, after we lost our scheduled appointment for registration, we were finally told we don't have to pay anything and they released the document we needed.
On the 24th of May, the ambulance will be registrered and we will start planning for our next campaign.
