Traffic offices for exchanging a foreign driving licence

EU/EEA route: Bring the official completed exchange application and its declarations, original valid ID, proof of Spanish residence, the original valid EU/EEA licence, and a current colour photograph measuring 32 × 26 mm on a plain background with a clearly visible face. The DGT (Spain’s traffic authority) checklist specifies an EU foreigner-registration certificate for EU citizens or a valid residence card for non-EU citizens; check the evidence applicable to your nationality before the visit. Have the fee number or payment receipt ready, or pay by card at the office; cash is not accepted. A representative must prove authorisation. The provisional licence is for driving within Spain only: check your travel arrangements before surrendering the original. Other agreement countries: obtain the appropriate authorised medical fitness report, prepare valid identity and residence evidence, the valid original licence and evidence of when the licence was obtained relative to residence in Spain. Country-specific certificates and tests may be needed. The fee category is 2.3 without additional tests or 2.1 with tests; use the applicable current amount. Upload legible documents, respond to requests for corrections and retain the receipt. Follow the office’s instructions for the final original-document handover. Country-specific checks: Argentina requires a Certificado de Legalidad y Antigüedad. DGT excludes Venezuelan licences issued as PDF documents; its guidance accepts only the original plastic-card format for exchange. For the Republic of Korea, the licence may have been obtained after legal residence in Spain began; check the current agreement conditions rather than applying the usual timing rule automatically. For Moroccan and Colombian licences, DGT allows motorcycle/car exchanges without additional tests. Truck/bus categories differ: Morocco requires an on-road test; Colombia requires the specific theory test plus an on-road test. The issuing-country verification and other eligibility requirements still apply; test exemption is not automatic approval. UK and Northern Ireland: obtain the appropriate DVLA or DVA check code and an authorised medical fitness report. Select the UK procedure in the digital exchange service and follow your selected office’s instructions for handing in the original. DGT says Gibraltar-issued licences do not require that check code. Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man licences are not eligible for this exchange route. The six-month driving limit is not a final application deadline: exchange can remain possible afterwards, but you must stop driving if your entitlement has ended. Ask DGT to assess agreement-specific residence/date conditions or an expired licence before applying.

The six-month driving limit is not a final application deadline: exchange can remain possible afterwards, but you must stop driving if your entitlement has ended. Ask DGT to assess agreement-specific residence/date conditions or an expired licence before applying.

EU/EEA route: Bring the completed exchange application and its declarations, valid original identity document, proof of normal residence, and the valid original foreign licence. DGT (Spain’s traffic authority) requires the foreigner-registration certificate for EU citizens and a valid residence card for non-EU citizens. Prepare a recent colour 32 × 26 mm photograph with a plain background and unobscured face; the ordinary Spanish-renewal photo exception should not be assumed here. Pay fee 2.3, currently €28.87, or bring its reference/receipt. Payment at the office is by card, not cash. Supply missing address evidence if DGT cannot verify it electronically. Other agreement countries: obtain the appropriate authorised medical fitness report, prepare valid identity and residence evidence, the valid original licence and evidence of when the licence was obtained relative to residence in Spain. Country-specific certificates and tests may be needed. The fee category is 2.3 without additional tests or 2.1 with tests; use the applicable current amount. Upload legible documents, respond to requests for corrections and retain the receipt. Follow the office’s instructions for the final original-document handover. UK and Northern Ireland: obtain the appropriate DVLA or DVA check code and medical fitness report. DGT expressly allows assessment of a licence that expired after entry into Spain; do not assume the general valid-document checklist excludes this case. Ask DGT to check the agreement’s residence and issue-date conditions. Gibraltar does not require that check code. Applying does not extend the right to drive.

EU/EEA route: Bring the official completed exchange application and its declarations, original valid ID, proof of Spanish residence, the original valid EU/EEA licence, and a current colour photograph measuring 32 × 26 mm on a plain background with a clearly visible face. The DGT (Spain’s traffic authority) checklist specifies an EU foreigner-registration certificate for EU citizens or a valid residence card for non-EU citizens; check the evidence applicable to your nationality before the visit. Have the fee number or payment receipt ready, or pay by card at the office; cash is not accepted. A representative must prove authorisation. The provisional licence is for driving within Spain only: check your travel arrangements before surrendering the original. Other agreement countries: obtain the appropriate authorised medical fitness report, prepare valid identity and residence evidence, the valid original licence and evidence of when the licence was obtained relative to residence in Spain. Country-specific certificates and tests may be needed. The fee category is 2.3 without additional tests or 2.1 with tests; use the applicable current amount. Upload legible documents, respond to requests for corrections and retain the receipt. Follow the office’s instructions for the final original-document handover. Country-specific checks: Argentina requires a Certificado de Legalidad y Antigüedad. DGT excludes Venezuelan licences issued as PDF documents; its guidance accepts only the original plastic-card format for exchange. For the Republic of Korea, the licence may have been obtained after legal residence in Spain began; check the current agreement conditions rather than applying the usual timing rule automatically. For Moroccan and Colombian licences, DGT allows motorcycle/car exchanges without additional tests. Truck/bus categories differ: Morocco requires an on-road test; Colombia requires the specific theory test plus an on-road test. The issuing-country verification and other eligibility requirements still apply; test exemption is not automatic approval. UK and Northern Ireland: obtain the appropriate DVLA or DVA check code and an authorised medical fitness report. Select the UK procedure in the digital exchange service and follow your selected office’s instructions for handing in the original. DGT says Gibraltar-issued licences do not require that check code. Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man licences are not eligible for this exchange route.
