Unless the vehicle's registered in the country it's tested you won't get a certificate. You can get tested to check your safe, like you did. If MOT expires when abroad I'd say book one for when you get straight of the ferry. I guess this could affect your insurance though.
I don't think there's a simple answer. Perhaps get the van retested to get a full year MOT before you head abroad.
