The photo-card part of the licence was introduced to improve road safety by ensuring that the person driving a vehicle is qualified to do so and to eliminate impersonation at driving tests. To keep the photo-card section of the licence up to date, drivers need to update their photograph every 10 years, until the age of 70. You can apply for your provisional licence after your 16th birthday, but the licence does not come into effect until your 17th birthday.

If you have a full licence from a European Union member state (plus Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway), you may drive in the UK with your current licence. If you are a permanent resident in the UK and you hold a full licence from your country of origin or an International Driving Permit, you may be able to drive in the UK for up to one year. However, it is advisable that you check with DVLA before doing so.
Please note that this information is intended as a guide only and it is advisable to check with DVLA on any matters concerning licencing. |
