View or share your driving licence information
You can view or share your driving licence information if your licence was issued in England, Wales or Scotland.
It’s a criminal offence to obtain someone else’s personal information without their permission.
Use this service to:
- view your driving record, for example, vehicles you can drive
- check your penalty points or disqualifications
- create a licence ‘check code’ to share your driving record with someone, for example, a car hire company
The check code will be valid for 21 days.
Before you start
You’ll need:
- your driving licence number
- your National Insurance number – find your National Insurance number if you’ve lost it
- the postcode on your driving licence
This service is also available in Welsh (Cymraeg).
Other ways to apply
You can also get a licence ‘check code’:
- through your driver and vehicles account
- over the phone
