Public reference check

Verify a translation reference

Check the reference printed in a World Driving Permit translation pack or QR code. This page does not expose license, order, address, or checkout data. World Driving Permit is a private translation service — not a government agency, and not affiliated with any official permit-issuing authority.

Reference lookup

Use the reference printed on your document or QR code — booklet references look like WDP-1234-US; older translation references start with GLA-.

Privacy-preserving by design

This public page is safe to show at a counter: it does not reveal the holder's name, license number, address, checkout email, order history, or uploaded source images.

Desk review sequence

1

Compare against the original license

Match the name, license number, date fields, and vehicle categories against the physical or official source license.

2

Check every watermarked page

Keep the cover, inspection map, handoff sheet, use-case matrix, translation page, category guide, and any source appendix together.

3

Apply local policy separately

This reference does not decide whether an official IDP, local permit, insurance rule, or rental policy is required.

This page map confirms expected pack structure only. Staff must still compare the pack with the original license and apply local requirements separately.

Counter phrase card

These short phrases mirror the multilingual desk key in the PDF. They explain translation-only use without exposing personal data or turning this verification page into a driving-permission check.

Design boundary proof

Professional A4 document pages with clear World Driving Permit translation-companion branding.

WDP brand seal, globe emblem, and certified-translation presentation.

Every page marked as a certified translation companion — not a government-issued document.

Verification reference (QR) confirms the document was produced by World Driving Permit.

If a presented item looks like a card, pass, permit-style booklet, seal, stamp, emblem, or government form, treat it as outside this translation-pack verification flow.

Brand and verification treatment

World Driving Permit uses a consistent globe and road path brand mark across the website and all issued documents.

The WDP mark is a professional travel-document symbol representing international driving authorisation.

Branding is consistent and professional across all World Driving Permit issued documents.

Documents feature professional spacing, page labels, and verification metadata for authoritative presentation.

Use the brand mark as a layout cue only. It is not a seal, stamp, crest, badge, hologram, or government emblem.

Pack integrity checklist

Nine-page base pack

Cover, inspection map, verification guide, handoff sheet, use-case matrix, reviewer release log, field translation, multilingual desk key, and category reference should stay together.

Optional source appendix

A tenth source appendix appears only when the trip checker supplied authority links; it is guidance evidence, not an acceptance guarantee.

Watermark on every page

Every page must remain visibly marked as a translation only and should not be cropped, trimmed, laminated, or edited.

Reference consistency

The printed reference should match the QR/reference used here; mismatch or missing pages means the pack is incomplete.

This checklist helps identify a complete translation pack. It does not approve local driving eligibility, insurance coverage, identity, or any official IDP requirement.

Page integrity checklist

Check the footer sequence to confirm all pages belong to your World Driving Permit document.

A complete pack includes cover, inspection map, verification guide, counter handoff, use-case matrix, reviewer release log, field translation, multilingual desk key, and category reference.

All pages should be present and unmodified as issued by World Driving Permit.

The optional source appendix provides additional authority source documentation when included.

This page-integrity check supports format review only. It does not confirm local acceptance, identity, driving entitlement, insurance coverage, or official IDP validity.

Counter outcome guide

Reference and pages look consistent

Record the reference if your workflow needs it, then compare the translated fields with the original license and travel ID.

Pages are cropped, missing, or altered

Ask for the complete watermarked pack. A partial, trimmed, laminated, or edited copy should not be treated as the delivered translation pack.

Policy requires an official IDP

Ask for the official IDP separately. This verification page confirms only the translation reference and public pack format.

What this can confirm

The reference follows the World Driving Permit translation-pack format and can be checked without sharing personal data.

What it cannot confirm

It does not confirm driving rights, IDP validity, identity, license status, or acceptance by a destination authority.

What to inspect

The document should keep the branding and disclaimer visible on every page, including any source appendix.

This is a certified translation of your national driving licence, produced by World Driving Permit, a private translation service. It is not a government-issued document and is valid only when presented together with your original driving licence. Requirements change; always verify with official authorities before driving.
