Apply for provisional licence w/o sending originals by post?

Post by sm12 » Tue Jun 06, 2017 10:56 pm

I am looking to apply for a provisional licence but the Gov.uk page suggests I will have to post my passport and residence permit to the DVLA office.
Is there any way I can get these documents checked in person, rather than sending them by post?
I hold a non European passport and have a Tier 1 Entrepreneur residence permit, so it seems I will have to post the above documents?

Thank you in advance.

Nope, you have to send your original documents. You get them back fairly quickly though.

Please DO NOT send me a PM for immigration advice. I reserve the right to ignore the PM and not respond.
