The DVLA is an Executive Agency of the Department for Transport (DfT), based in Swansea. The DVLA’s primary aims are to facilitate road safety and general law enforcement by maintaining accurate registers of drivers and vehicle keepers and to collect Vehicle Excise Duty (VED). 2.1 The Authority has the right to inspect a vehicle in certain circumstances and is provided for in law by: i. The Road Vehicles (Registration and Licensing) Regulations 2002 (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2002/2742/regulation/10/made), and ii. The Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994 (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1994/22/section/22) 2.2 The purpose of an inspection is to confirm specific information about a vehicle that can only be verified with the vehicle physically present. Some vehicles may require a more in-depth inspection than others, depending on what information the Authority needs to confirm. Inspections may take place pre- or post-registration and for a number of reasons, often but not exclusively as a result of an application made to the Authority regarding the vehicle. The basis of the Authority’s decision to inspect a vehicle is usually one of the following: i. To confirm that the vehicle exists; ii. To confirm that the vehicle is what it purports to be, either on the Authority’s records or on the application received, by confirming the presence of identifying features particular to the make and model; iii. To confirm that the applicant is in possession of the vehicle.

One of the UK's outcomes from EU-Exit negotiations was to ensure UK driving licences would be mutually recognised and exchangeable with other member states. Mutual recognition remains in many countries but when required a country can ask for an IDP to support the driving licence for driving in that country. The IDP is also used worldwide as well as within the EU. On request a UK driving licence holder must be able to obtain an IDP. There are three separate versions of the IDP (depending on the destination country) and DVLA, as the issuing authority, must conform to the formats specified in the 1926, 1949 and 1968 Vienna conventions. These have been issued under the terms of a commercial agreement with Post Office Ltd, and DVLA is now seeking to test the wider market to explore how such a service could be provided in future. We would expect a supplier to administer in the region of 200,000-300,000 permits per annum. The service must commence on 1st April 2024. The service will be required for a period of 3 years. The cost of an IDP is set at £5.50 by legislation and the service provider will be expected to cover their costs and profit by retaining the full fee.
