Driving abroad, from licence to road

Whether you can use your Indian licence, how to exchange it or get a new one, how the theory and practical tests work, and what it costs, country by country.

Start here

Most countries let you drive with a valid Indian licence for a limited time after you move, often with an International Driving Permit or a translation. After that you need a local licence: some countries exchange an Indian licence directly, others require a theory test, a practical test or both. The rules depend on the country and sometimes on how long you have held your licence, so check the page for your country before the deadline. Read the existing Germany driving licence guide and the UK guide.

Practice questions are our own

The official theory-test questions in Germany, the UK and elsewhere are protected and published only through licensed providers. Our practice questions are written by our team to teach the same rules; use them to learn, and use an official learning app or your driving school for the final preparation.
