But life situations and requirements for drivers provoke situations when the date of issue of the first driver’s license needs to be remembered. How to implement this will be presented below, taking into account the use of the number of a currently available driver’s license.
Request to the traffic police
This option offers 2 request methods:
- When visiting the traffic police in person;
- Through a request on the website.
With a personal visit, everything is simple: make an appointment by phone or online (section “Service” on the traffic police website) and present your driver’s license to the traffic police officer. He will check their series and number against the internal database and provide information about the date of issue of the first driver's license.
Submitting a request online:
- You must log into the traffic police website.
- Select the “Services” menu and select “Driver Check” in the drop-down window.
- In the form that opens, fill in the details of the current license (series and license number, date of issue).
- After that, click “Request Verification”.
- After processing the request, information about the owner of the license will appear on the screen, as well as the first license issued to him and the traffic police department that issued it.
RSA database
Another way to find out when the first driver's license was issued is to query the database of the auto insurers union. This procedure is completely legal, RSA makes every effort to accommodate individuals who want to obtain data about the old VU. The RSA website is located at: autoins.ru.
To simplify the procedure, a universal date is entered in all questionnaires - December 31. Therefore, the driver can quickly find the necessary information without having to enter the exact time of receipt of the driving license. To search, you can also contact the insurance company that handles the paperwork. Specialists of the Union of Auto Insurers act on the principles of honesty and openness in providing data, so they will undertake the search, regardless of the complexity.
Information about the time of issue of the tertiary license cannot be obtained from the RSA database. You can send a request to RSA staff or write by e-mail.
Other data is also checked using the car insurers database - KBM. This index affects the cost of the insurance policy. It is recommended to calculate this index before purchasing insurance. If you make a mistake, the loss can amount to more than one thousand rubles.
The KBM index depends on the driver’s length of service according to the driver’s license number. Unscrupulous auto insurers may inflate this ratio, so you need to double-check with a specialist and delve into the details.
To check the PCA index, you need to do the following:
1Visit: autoins.ru.
2Open the “Osago” tab.
3Select on the left: “Information for policyholders and victims.”
4 A list will open in which you need to select: “Information for determining the KBM.”
5Agree with the processing of personal data.
6Fill in all the fields required for the calculation.
Only citizens of the Russian Federation can calculate the BMR.
You can only look at the year of issue on the VA, so insurers indicate December 31 when issuing a policy.
There are services on the Internet that offer to obtain the necessary information for a fee. To use the service you will need your last name and ID number. There is a small fee for this service. The driver, if he has a license in hand, can check the time of issue of the driver's license using the traffic police and RSA database.
Is it possible to find out from the driver’s personal data?
It is not possible to find out information about a citizen’s first driver’s license and his driving experience based on his full name. This data is considered the citizen’s personal information, is protected by law and cannot be distributed (protection of confidential information).
Thus, today, obtaining information about the period for issuing the first driver’s license using the number of the current driver’s license is a fairly simple procedure. You are offered a choice of several services and request options that will save your time and allow you to quickly get answers to your questions.
Recommendations from RSA specialists
Currently, most drivers, when searching for information about the deadline for obtaining their first driver’s license, most often turn to RSA.
As mentioned above, when contacting insurance companies, a situation often arises when the insurer’s data about your driver’s experience differs from the real figure. Let’s not forget that an insurer’s business is, first and foremost, a business. No one will work at a loss, so take care in advance to search for information on the date of issue of the first rights. In addition, there is often a situation when the data on your rights from some insurers differs from the data from other insurers. Therefore, genuine information is of particular importance, because... the difference in insurance payments due to such an “error” can amount to several thousand rubles, and this, you see, is significant. Therefore, when applying for an insurance policy in a situation where you do not remember the exact day and month, but remember the year, indicate the date December 31st. RSA specialists came to this opinion and these are the recommendations they give to drivers. Without specifying the date, the online policy registration system will not allow the application. In addition, use all available resources to search for true information on the date of receipt of the first permit. Because We remember that thanks to accurate information you have the opportunity to significantly save your money.
How can I see when the deadline ends?
This data is indicated in the deprivation information block.
But the exact date, how much is left before obtaining a license, is not displayed on the traffic police website when checking deadlines. You will have to calculate it yourself. But don't worry, it's very easy to do!
To calculate when the period of deprivation of a driver's license ends, we need to know the following regulatory data:
- the period of deprivation begins from the day the court decision enters into force - this occurs on the 11th day from the day it was issued by the judge,
- within 3 days you are required to surrender your driver's license or write a statement about the loss to the traffic police, which executes the court order (must be indicated in a copy of the decision), otherwise the period of deprivation will be interrupted and resumed from the date of surrender or application.
- The judge deprived the driver of his license on January 1, 2021 for a period of 4 months, making a corresponding decision,
- accordingly, the punishment comes into force on January 11,
- before January 14, you must give your license to the traffic police or write a statement if you have lost it,
- Let’s say you handed in your ID, then the period of deprivation will expire on May 11, 2021.
- The court imposed a sentence of March 1, 2021 for six months,
- you appealed the decision in the district court - thus, the entry into force was postponed until the decision of the district court was made - for example, this happened on May 1, in this case it comes into force immediately - from 05/1/2019,
- you must submit your driver’s license by May 3, but you didn’t do this, and only wrote a statement about the loss on May 20,
- in this case, on May 1, as expected, the period of deprivation of rights began, but was interrupted on the 3rd, and resumed on the 20th - thus, it expires only on November 17, 2021 (3 days from the 1st to the 3rd, then six months minus these 3 days , starting May 20).
It is important to know!
Regarding the statement of loss of rights. In June 2021, the Supreme Court issued a Resolution of the Plenum. It examined a number of issues, including the terms of deprivation of rights.
And the Supreme Commander pointed out that if you wrote a statement about the loss of your license, but then continued to drive with it again, deceiving the traffic police, then the entire calculation period that had already passed before the day this violation was discovered is canceled and starts anew from the day it was discovered violations. And this is in addition to the fine for driving while deprived of your license.
One more example. You have been deprived of your driving privileges for 3 months. The resolution came into force on January 20, and you filed a statement about the loss of your license on time. But they continued to travel with him. On April 10, traffic police inspectors caught you, ransacked your license, and it turned out that you had been revoked and indicated that it was the driver’s license they had presented for verification that they had lost. And in this case, 3 months will begin again on April 10 and will pass only on July 10.
This can be done according to the status of the punishment on the official website of the traffic police online.
- If it states “The calculation of the period of deprivation of the right to drive has begun,” then the period of deprivation is running and will end on time.
- If the status is “Decision made,” then this period has not yet begun, since it has not yet entered into force.
- But if the status says that the deadline has been interrupted, then this means that you did not submit your driver’s license on time.
How to find out a court decision to revoke a driver's license?
According to the statuses we talked about above. Three results will most accurately indicate this:
- “The decision has been made...”, i.e. the trial took place and the decision on deprivation of rights was made, but has not yet entered into legal force (10 days have not passed or an appeal has been filed).
- “The resolution has entered into force...”, i.e. 10 days have passed, and the right to drive the vehicle is no longer available.
- “The calculation period has begun...”, i.e. the license has been surrendered, the period of punishment is taken into account.
You can indirectly understand the state of affairs by looking at some other statuses, but these are the ones that give the most complete picture.
When may such information be needed?
Similar information - the exact date of issue of the first driver's license - may be required when independently applying for a compulsory motor third party liability insurance policy.
If a driver contacts the office, he only needs to remember the year he received his first license. But if he tries to order the service on his own on the official website, he may encounter difficulties.
Firstly, there are a huge number (in addition to the official one) of third-party sites that offer the presented service.
With a different interface, all programs are configured so that the driver needs to enter the day, month and year of receiving his first driver's license.
An artificially arisen problem is also noted here, since as a result of issuing a policy, only the year the document was received will be taken into account.
Secondly, if the driver does not enter the exact date and month of receiving a driver’s license when filling out the form, the program gives him an error - further processing of documents is stopped.
There is a solution for the driver - just contact the office to apply for an MTPL policy. But this is fraught with long queues, and in a number of regions there are significant problems with issuing them due to the lack of the quantity required by citizens.
Therefore, drivers who are familiar with computers and the Internet are increasingly turning to electronic services. They also provide methods for obtaining the information necessary for this via the Internet.
The exact date of issue of the first driver's license may be requested when applying for a job, taking out any personal insurance policies, and in other situations.
The court decision on deprivation of a driver's license is discussed in the article: court decision on deprivation of a driver's license. What GCL means in rights is described in the link.
How to find a court decision?
Unfortunately, through the traffic police website it is impossible to find out the number of the decision or court order imposing a punishment.
If, when checking the number of your driver’s license for deprivation, you suddenly discovered the presence of it, even with an interrupted period, although you did not receive any letters and, therefore, did not know about the imposed punishment, then you can find out the court’s decision only by requesting the relevant information from the traffic police at the place of deprivation.
But this can also be done through an online application by submitting a corresponding application online on the same traffic police website.
How to find out the exact date of issue of the first driver's license if only the year is indicated on the license
The level of modern technology has made it possible to obtain MTPL insurance using the Internet. This innovation evoked a lively response from many car owners or transport owners in general, who practically inundated RSA representative offices with their questions. Their most pressing question is what numbers should be used to obtain insurance in cases where only a year is indicated on the certificate?
The driver's license does not indicate the date of issue of the first license, because... Driver experience since 1984.
You can also shift the difficulty of finding out the exact date to a professional and contact directly the office of the insurance company or an insurance agent. Note that in this case, the dates for issuing the first car license may vary significantly between different insurers, both up and down, so the owner still needs to decide for himself which agent he wants to trust to issue the policy.
Last update: 05-12-2019
To do this, it is important that the following conditions are met:
- you handed over your driver’s license on time to the traffic police department that is executing your punishment, or you wrote a statement about the loss, and you were not caught driving on an unsurrendered license,
- you have successfully passed the theoretical exam on knowledge of traffic rules,
- you have paid all available fines (and they have reached the traffic police database, or you have receipts),
- in case of deprivation of your license under one of the articles for drunk driving or refusal of examination, you also received a new medical certificate in form 003-B/u.
In this case, simply by calculation, when the period of deprivation of a driver’s license expires, you come to the traffic police department where they are located and ask them to be issued, taking with you the following documents:
- Your passport,
- receipts for payment of fines,
- medical certificate (in case of deprivation for intoxication or refusal to undergo a medical examination).
