What if I have a foreign driving licence issued from a country that is part of the European Community or European Economic Area?
If you have a foreign driving licence issued in a country that is part of the European Community or European Economic Area, you are able to obtain a free DVLA issued counterpart which will allow you to accept the fixed penalty. The D9 application form can be obtained by phoning the DVLA on 0870 2400009 or by downloading it from www.dvla.gov.uk/media/pdf/forms/d9.pdf. Once you receive your counterpart, you must send it to the Fixed Penalty Office at: PO BOX 236, Stevenage, SG1 3ZN along with your foreign driving licence, completed Conditional Offer form and payment of 60. If you do not wish to obtain the UK counterpart, this matter will have to be dealt with by way of a court hearing. You should send a photocopy of your driving licence with a covering letter to the Safety Camera Unit.
