Help - where on earth do you find out what the codes mean on the back converted EU licences? I have phoned the DVLA today and they can only send me the book on the UK codes.
We now have a couple of lads that have got converted licences now and my dad has given me a right row about not knowing exactly what the codes mean.
And to add to my troubles are they exempt from the DCPC until 2014 ? the same as if they had passed prior to 2009 ? and 1 of them has a driver qualification card - but its Romanian - what does he do with that ■■?
The driver qualification card is the DCPC. valid until the expiry date.
Most EU countries have had something similar to the DCPC for a long time.
The licence categories are on the back. column 9=category, 10=valid from, 11 valid to, 12=restrictions.

DQC is valid in any EU country until it expires - thats law
The EU rules are the same for EVERY EU LGV driver in regards to DCPC including the aquired/grandfather rights
In regards to codes … do you mean the categories they can drive or penalty codes ■■
And as to the DCPC - why is the government saying they ought to exchange for a UK - if they change their licence to a uk one but it will cost £25■■?, but then if they have a code 95 then the DCPC and licence are the same and the UK will send out a DCPC - but if they don’t they can do training but have to send a form in to apply to have their DCPC sent to them…
Can you lay people off because you dont understand the red tape ■■?
The letter represent the country exchanged from (I deduce)
D = Germany
LT = Lithuania
SK = Slovakia
01 is glasses or contacts.
My understanding is a EU licence doesn’t need to be exchanged for a UK one until it expires (mutual recognition), but vocational (C & D) need a UK counterpart licence so they have a UK “shadow” licence to pin penalty points to.
