The DVLA has recently announced that the paper counterpart of the British driving licence is no longer valid and therefore drivers who want to hire a car abroad are being advised to obtain a code from the DVLA’s ‘share driving licence’ service on their website. Our car hire companies in Malta and Gozo have both confirmed that they only require a copy of a valid photocard licence; therefore Malta Direct clients do not need to obtain a code from the DVLA.
