Here's a tidied up version of the Python code to generate the MRZ from the passport data. It also corrects a padding error. https://pastebin.com/k0Tty22a My Dutch driver's licence has a single MRZ-like line across the bottom. It seems to encode the country and licence number but I can't make any sense of the rest of the line. Anyone have any leads?

I haven't found the docs for the Dutch version but this article shows the content of the MRZ of a French drivers license. They seem to match the Dutch ones as well. https://trustdochub.com/en/mrz-strip-french-driving-licence/#MRZ_Tape https://trustdochub.com/en/mrz-strip-french-driving-licence/...

  Only partially. At least for my Dutch licence. It contains neither holder's last name nor end date. It does start with D1NLD. Then a single digit which is not the checksum of the foregoing (using the passport checksum algorithm). Then the document number. Then some letters and numbers I can't make any sense of. It ends with a correct global checksum for all of the foregoing.

    See the spec I mentioned. But here's an excerpt. https://upload.disroot.org/r/Y_vdT16A#cW4coNxPvTJN6b8InO5cHWg+H677CP94exKuMbEQBxU= https://upload.disroot.org/r/Y_vdT16A#cW4coNxPvTJN6b8InO5cHW...

Drivers licenses aren't ICAO 9303 compliant. For EU documents a separate spec is being used (NEN-ISO-IEC 18013-3). Small pointer: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:02012R0383-20140617 https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CEL... Context: Made an implementation for reading these when Dutch drivers license model with NFC first came available (model 2014 if I remember correctly)
