Frequently Asked Questions
DL Verification vs RC Verification?+
Driving License Verification validates the person’s license details, such as holder name, DOB, validity, address, and vehicle class eligibility. Vehicle RC Verification validates vehicle registration details, ownership, fitness, insurance, and registration status.
