Offices that exchange foreign driving licences in Poland

Pick the city or county office for your home address

Licence exchange is handled by the transport department of a city office, a county office or, in Warsaw, a district office, and the right one is the office for where you live. Some offices start with a document check before anything else, and the exam rules depend on the licence you hold. Prepare supporting papers such as a photocopy of the licence and your residence document.

    Prepare form 11, two-sided licence copy and original, ID, a 35 × 45 mm photo taken within six months, payment proof and applicable stay evidence or six-month study confirmation. Sworn/consular translation depends on format. Expired categories may need medical/psychological evidence. A representative needs authority; PLN 17 may apply with family exemptions. Surrender the foreign original for the Polish card. For the theory-exam route, deliver issuance-payment proof after passing so production can be ordered.
