DVLA Check Code

We ask for a DVLA check code so we can verify your driving licence and any convictions securely.

  1. Visit the official GOV.UK service: gov.uk/view-driving-licence
  2. Enter your driving licence number, National Insurance number & postcode.
  3. Choose “Share your driving licence details” and request a check code.
  4. Copy the 16-character code shown (it’s valid for 21 days).

Provide that code when booking so we can complete your licence check.
