I know it's a well-worn subject in other internet places, but can I ask if anyone on here has exchanged their uk driving licence for a Spanish one? If so, could you give a simple summary of the steps/process you followed? I know the pros/cons and the rules that govern when you should do it so I'm not trying to ignite that debate, I just want to be clear about where to go in the first instance, what to take with me etc. Many thanks, in advance!

A slightly different tack on driving licences, so thought I would open a separate thread. I have my cita previa arranged to exchange my UK driving licence for a Spanish one - it’s something I do have to do in my particular circumstances. It’s not clear, however, whether the medical certificate is required for a straightforward ‘canje’. It’s not included in the list required on the DGT site, yet I know others who have  obtained it first and not had it rejected as not required. Scanning

Hi all - following our recent visit it is clear real progress has been made on the works, given the current exchange rates and upcoming UK election i contacted Tamara about paying Anjoca early to lock in the current rate, they are able to accommodate this and it would be covered by the bank guarantees if anyone is interested. I would be happy to hear from anyone with similar experience of waiting and watching exchange rates or any other wise words, alternative is to put it in our Sabadell accou

Current "cash" exchange rate here is 1.08. Anyone know what the rate is in Caleta or Corralejo.

Good morning to you all,

I have just returned to Fuerteventura after nearly 7 months, we are living here full time now, can anyone advise me what is the situation with changing UK licence to Spanish?.

I have my TIE card.

Many thanks Bob.

Just wondered whether anyone had undertaken the eye test/physical for getting a Spanish licence (I appreciate the exchange has not been confirmed yet).

If so, where was it (we are North of the island), how much, and was it simple to understand? I am studying Spanish but not sure how good I am yet!

TIA :-)

My daughter resides in Jersey Channel Islands and will be moving permanently to Fuerteventura next year.

My question is has anyone on here from either the Channel Islands or Isle of Man experienced changing their driving licence to a Spanish one. If so what were the problems encountered as I know of 2 people from both places that have been refused the exchange, any help much appreciated, thanks Willie.

Hi nice people,

Does anyone know if there are any Coinstar machines on the island. I'm guessing not, but we have loads of change which we use less and less.

Failing that, any in Lanzarote??

TIA
Bill

Can anyone recommend an exchange bureau in Corralejo?
