Annual Oystercard holders do not need to Touch-In on the DLR.

...or on the Tube, or on bendy buses, or on trams, or on National
Rail. The only occasions where you need to touch in with a period
Oyster card are when you physically need to open barriers, and when
boarding a non-bendy bus.

OR when you're travelling outside the zonal validity of your
Travelcard, and thus are using Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) to cover the
ticket extension (i.e. excess fare) from where your Travelcard
validity finishes.

Hmm. I'd count that as "not having a period Oyster card", assuming
that "which is valid for the journey you're planning to make" is
implicit after "Oyster card" (in the same sense as "you should only
board a train at a manned station if you have a ticket"). But I
suppose you're technically right...
