Licences

Last Update a year ago

A pupil with a Canadian licence wants to take a manual test in the UK. Does he need a provisional licence and a theory test? Can a Ukrainian licence holder exchange an automatic licence for a manual one, or do they need to take tests? Can my pupil from the Netherlands drive on his Dutch licence in the UK? I am giving up driving instruction, how do I notify the DVSA and can I get a refund for the remaining time on my licence?

A Canadian licence can be exchanged for a UK licence within 12 months, but it will typically be automatic unless he can prove he passed a manual test in Canada. Otherwise, he’ll need a provisional licence and must take the theory and practical tests to upgrade to manual.
