The National Driver Licensing Service (NDLS), operated by the Road Safety Authority (RSA), applies ID verification to what is called the SAFE 2 standard. Among other things, this requires that the individual appear in person for ID verification and image capture at an NDLS centre. Once authenticated under SAFE 2, the person does not need to have their identity verified again. I understand from the RSA that NDLS enhancements which are being planned will in due course provide additional channels through phone supported by postal and online access for those customers who have been SAFE 2 authenticated. I understand from the RSA that this is targeted for introduction in the first quarter of 2015. At that point, customers who have been through an NDLS Office will not have to revisit the service personally.
