Driving Licence - Driving in Spain moving from the UK

Hi Gabriel, there is no need to have lessons or doing a driving test anymore. You can exchange your licence within the first 6 months. You have to make an appointment at the traffic office and need to have your passport, residencia (TIE), empadronamiento and UK driving licence, photograph, DVLA certificate. The other thing you need to do is attend a medical test. This is pretty straightforward and includes blood pressure check, eye test and a reaction test. If you need help with the paperwork i.e. making appointments there are people on the island who can help with this i.e. gestors. Happy to help if you need further info. Christine 

Thank you Christine, I had just found this out via the British consulate in Madrid. there is a document of mutual agreement between Spain and the UK dated 15th March re exchange of Licences.
