ISO/IEC 18013
establishes guidelines for the design format and data content of an ISO-compliant
driving licence (IDL) with regard to human-readable features (ISO/IEC 18013‑1), machine-readable technologies (ISO/IEC 18013‑2), and access control, authentication and integrity validation (ISO/IEC 18013‑3). It creates a common basis for international use and mutual recognition of the IDL
without impeding individual countries/states to apply their privacy rules and national/community/ regional
motor vehicle authorities in taking care of their specific needs.

This document does not address issues related to the subsequent use of data obtained
