Driver's licence checking service

The law says all employers have to be certain that their drivers are legally able to drive for work.

Our service provides information directly from the DVLA database for you to check this. As well as giving you complete confidence that your drivers are on the road legally, it will reduce the time it takes to check any UK-registered driver's credentials.

We can offer you:

  • A comprehensive licence check with the DVLA
  • Quick access to online driver data - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
  • A telephone alert service to warn you about any urgent issues

You can find out more about how the service works in the June 09 edition (1 MB) of our FORSight newsletter.

Contact us at fors@tfl.gov.uk to start using the service.
