Ofte Stillede Spørgsmål

Can I take the Spanish driving test in English?

No, the official DGT theory test is only available in Spanish. However, you can practice with AutoviaTest in English to learn all the rules before taking the official test in Spanish.

How long can I drive in Spain with my foreign license?

You can drive with your foreign license and International Driving Permit (IDP) for up to 6 months from the date you establish residency in Spain. After that, you must convert to a Spanish license.

Can I exchange my US license for a Spanish one?

No, there is no bilateral agreement between the USA and Spain. US citizens must take both the theory test (in Spanish) and practical test to obtain a Spanish driving license.

What is an NIE and why do I need it?

NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) is your foreigner identification number. You need it for almost all official procedures in Spain, including applying for a driving license.

Do I need to take driving lessons in Spain?

If you need to take the practical test, you'll typically need lessons with an authorized driving school (autoescuela). If you're exchanging a license from a country with an agreement, no lessons are required.
