Australian licence conversion

[Androo]

just wondering if anyone knew whether it would be much trouble to convert my Australian licence to UK if I go there again. (last time I went there I wasnt old enough )

No idea but if you search the DVLA website I'm sure you'll find what you need.

Depends on a lot of things, that not sure of the specifics. My mate has been out there almost a year and has a 250 of some kind however I think because he hasn't had it over a year he cant transfer it to a UK one.

Hi

Not certain, but I don't think a UK licence and an Australian licence can be exchanged. With an Aus licence you can drive in the UK for a short while (and the same the other way round, don't know but probably a year or so).

Knew some people who moved to Australia and they had to take Australian driving tests to get a licence over there.

All the best

You can drive in the UK on your Australian licence for up to one year and you must also have an IDP (International Driving Permit) to drive in this country (I think).

You must also pass a UK driving test to be able to drive over here long term and then you would hold a Full UK driving licence.

Dont hold me to the above though.

Or check out https://www.dvla.gov.uk for more info.

In New Zealand you can use your UK license for 1 year before you have to take a theory test and answer some questions from a traffic police officer. Will probably be something similar to that if not the same.
