Website: RESPER: Réseau permis de conduire

RESPER is a telematic network to be established across the EU. It shall act as a hub for the exchange of information between national authorities responsible for issuing driving licences, in particular to guarantee recognition of documents and acquired rights originating in other Member States, combat document fraud and avoid the issuance of multiple licences. Moreover, the European Court of Justice has recently identified an obligation for Member States to exchange information on driving licences under certain circumstances.
