Where can I exchange a Ukrainian driver's license abroad?


Citizens of Ukraine can exchange their license in all the above countries and cities.


Who needs to exchange a driver's license?


The procedure is necessary for those who have a damaged license, expired document or changed personal data:

• Change of personal data - the driver has changed his or her last name, first name, patronymic or gender.

 The validity of the license has expired, which is most relevant for licenses issued for the first time, as its validity is only 2 years. The procedure will be carried out without taking an exam if the driver has not committed more than two administrative offenses.

 When the driver's license has been damaged (data cannot be read).

 Replacing photos, clarifying data.


The procedure and list of documents


The replacement procedure is carried out:


 by appointment through the electronic queue;

 in the order of the live queue - the coupon can be obtained directly at the service center.


The following documents are required during the visit:


 passport of a citizen of Ukraine with information about the place of registration. If you have an ID-card without information about the place of registration on a contactless electronic medium, you must provide a certificate of registration of the place of residence;

 identification code (original or copy);

 a document confirming the change of personal data.

• a driver's license that needs to be replaced.


Please note! Documents are processed only by the applicant personally. The administrator accepts the package of documents, fills out the application form and submits it to the Service Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Ukraine. 


In case of successful application, the SE "Document" will print a new certificate on a special form. The application is usually processed within 1 day. The issued certificate is valid for 30 years.
