Exchange your driving licence.
Without losing driving days.
Photograph your licence and your NIE. We check your route against the DGT's list, prepare the file, pay the tasa and book your Jefatura appointment. You attend one appointment and keep driving on a temporary permit until the new card arrives.
We answer Mon–Fri, 09:00–18:00 CEST
€195 including IVA, plus the €28.87 tasa 4.1 at cost. The psicotécnico (€40–60) is paid by you at the centre. If we can't exchange it, we say so before you pay.
More from Hola
Your licence stops working in Spain. Quietly.
-
The clock nobody mentions
Six months after you become resident, a non-EU licence is no longer valid here — no letter, no warning, no reminder. An EU licence has its own two-year rule if it carries no expiry date.
-
The appointment nobody can get
Jefatura slots are released in unpredictable batches and taken within minutes, especially in the coastal provinces. Persistence beats patience, and most people have neither to spare.
-
The sequencing trap
The psicotécnico expires while you wait for a slot. The padrón goes stale. Most people who try this alone don't fail on difficulty — they fail on sequencing.
Three routes, one of them is yours
Whether you can exchange comes down to the country on your licence
Not your nationality. Not how long you've been driving. Not which state or region licensed you.
EU & EEA licences
A straight administrative swap: your entitlement dates carry over, no exams. The catch is timing — an indefinite-validity licence must be exchanged two years after you register as resident.
See the EU routeAgreement countries
Spain holds bilateral convenios with around thirty non-EU countries: the UK since 2023, plus Switzerland, most of Latin America, Japan, Korea, Ukraine and Morocco. Exchange without a test, but on a clock.
See the UK routeEverywhere else
The US, Canada, Australia, India, China. No agreement in force means no exchange exists at any price, from anyone. The route is the Spanish licence itself: theory in English, then a practical.
