German to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / invoice for car rental
German term or phrase: Vorh. MV
On an invoice for car rental - underneath the customer number, invoice no.... then there is VoNr - which I have as 'regulation number'.

But I'm not sure what Vorh. MV is (I'm assuming vorh. is short for vorhanden(er) for existing but what is MV?

Underneath that comes the car group and registration number of the care and driver's name....

Explanation:
Again, this is merely a guess. "Vorh." might also be "vorheriger" (previous), depending on the structure of the invoice.
