DRIVING LICENCE


 

Currently Italia uses different models. Driving licence is issued by Provincial Offices of Motorizzazione Civile (Motor Vehicles), which depend on the Ministry of Transport.

 

Regarding the legal nature of this document, briefly we can say that this is administrative authorisation, issued upon the verification of the presence of prescribed psychophysical, technical and moral requirements by the owner.

 

In Italy, driving licence assumes also the character of identification document to permit personal identification of the Italian citizens; in this regard, please refer to the circular n. 41 of the Ministry of Interior of 18 May 1998, with which it’s expressed a favourable opinion in order to consider this document as suitable for personal identification.

The opinion is based in particular on the wording of the provision of the Art. 292 of RD (Royal Decree) of 6 May 1940, n. 635, (implementingregulations of the consolidated public safety laws), that gives character of the equivalent document to the identity card to each document with photo and issued by the State Administration of the Ministry of Transport and Navigation.

 DOCUMENT WITH ANTI-FORGERY SECURITY FEATURES

 

Model MC 804 F,  introduced in 1999, up today has undergone several minor changes, due to:

positioning of printout number (3 versions)

change of the header and other elements (8 versions)

 

 

NUMBER PLATES


 

The last change came in 1999 as a result of Decree of the President of Republicof4 September 1998, n.355 which has foreseen new types of number plates with uniform characteristics in Europe.

 

Dimensions: mm. 520 x 110, keeps in the central part alphanumeric sequence (AA OOO AA) of black digits; on the left side has a rectangular blue band establishing the European emblem (yellow) and a distinctive letter of Italy (white); on the right side has a rectangular blue band, symmetric to the previous one, bearing a yellow circle containing the year of registration, and, immediately below, the symbol of the province (white), the last one is not obligatory.
