}Verify an Australian driver licence against the issuing state or territory road authority.
Submit the licence number, the card number printed on the plastic, and the state of issue alongside the holder’s name and date of birth. The card number changes when a licence is reissued, so it must come from the physical card the holder currently has.
Reading the result
Checkdata.isValid to determine whether the submitted details match the issuing agency’s records. A no-match still returns HTTP 200 with success: true — see Introduction to Australia DVS for how to interpret verificationStatus.
Sandbox test data
