Driving abroad
Driving in the EEA
If you have a full Great Britain (GB) or Northern Ireland driving licence, you can drive in any EEA country on this licence. An International Driving Permit is not required if you have a licence.
You can exchange your GB licence for one of the country in which you are living if you want to.
Driving outside the EEA
If you wish to drive abroad as a visitor, for example, on holiday, you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP). If you need an IDP you may apply by post to one of the motoring organisations or get one in person from a major post office. You do not have to be a member of the organisation. You can only be issued with an IDP if you have a full GB or Northern Ireland licence.
If you go to live permanently in another country you may be able to exchange your licence for a driving licence in that country. You should check with the driver licensing authority in the country in which you are going to live. The appropriate embassy may be able to provide this information.
