It's not needed any more. You go to the DVLA website to view your driving record or get a code so, e.g., a car hire company can view it.

Fact: They *never* ask for that in the USA.

In times BC but since the DVLA invented the code system I've rented cars in several countries but never been asked for it. If the overseas car hire companies know about this unique-to-the-UK feature they may think it not worth the bother. Actually I'm not certain is is unique to us but have never come across other countries with a similar system.
