Can I drive in Spain with my UK driving licence?

If you were living in Spain before 2021, you will be able to use your UK driving licence for 10 months, starting on 1 January. After these 10 months, you will be required to have a Spanish driving licence to continue driving in Spain. Unless you requested the exchange prior to 30 December 2020, to exchange your UK driving licence for a Spanish one you will need to take a test. 

If you entered Spain from 2021 onwards, you will be able to drive using your UK driving licence for 6 months after your entry. After that, you will need to exchange your UK driving licence for a Spanish one to continue to do so.
