Instructions

[edit]

EEC exchange
A valid driving licence issued by a European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) member state is automatically accepted in all other member states. People with an EU/EEA-issued driver's licence who take up residence in Gibraltar are not required to exchange it for a Gibraltar issued licence, although the holder may exchange it at any time. If a traffic offence occurs and the licence is endorsed by the courts, residents of Gibraltar who are holders of EU licences not issued in Gibraltar will be required to exchange it for a Gibraltar licence so that it may be endorsed with the particulars of the offence.
