EU network for driving licence data exchange

Infographic: EU network for driving licence data exchange

The exchange of information between Italy and other Member States of the European Union and the European Economic Area regarding driving licences takes place through a common European network. This network is used to share data related to the issuing of licences, their conversion between countries, duplicates, renewals and revocations.

The network may also be used for control purposes provided for by European legislation. This allows authorities, for example, to verify whether a person already holds a licence in another country, whether it has been suspended or revoked, or whether there are any irregularities.

Access to this network is protected and restricted. Only the competent authorities responsible for issuing, managing and controlling driving licences and professional driver qualifications are allowed to use it. In addition, the exchange of information complies with data protection laws, ensuring the security and confidentiality of personal data.
