The government is fully mobilized on a day-to-day basis in the fight against fraud in the area of “‹“‹particular public passenger transport and, in particular, the illegal exercise of the VTC driver profession. Strong actions have already been initiated for several months by the State services: awareness of document fraud for the issuance of titles in the prefectures, coordinated actions of the control services and law enforcement agencies, application design Numerical systems facilitating securities verification operations by the linking platforms, in application of the provisions of Article 1 of the "Grandguillaume" law. This determination has already led to the dismantling of certain sectors. In this context, the control operations carried out by the police, the prefectures and the services of the Ministry in charge of transport made it possible to identify the development of fraud related to the use of false professional driver cards. This phenomenon involves the falsification of cards that were issued before September 1, 2017, and were based on an unsecured paper document. 57,000 paper business cards are still used. This is why the Ministry of Transport is committed to the renewal of all unsecured cards of VTC drivers, to replace them with secure securities by the end of 2019. A major source of fraud will thus be eradicated.------------------------------------  In order to proceed with this renewal, all VTC drivers still holding a professional paper card must commit by June 30 the necessary steps to switch to a secured card. VTC drivers who hold a professional paper card are therefore requested to pre-register exclusively on the website https://chauffeur-carte.t3p-ingroupe.com/enrolement between June 3 and 30 so that they can take steps necessary to continue their activity. The deadline for submitting renewal applications is June 30, 2019.  A major information campaign is launched for VTC drivers between June 3 and June 30, 2019. Source : French Ministry of Transport
