Can I still use my UK drivers licence to drive in mainland Europe after the UK left the EU?
Yes, but you will also need extra documents to drive in Europe from January 2021.
More than ever before, it’s really important to make sure you have the right driving documents before you travel. For full details, check the latest government advice.
- You will need a valid Great Britain or Northern Ireland driving licence with you to drive abroad.
- You will also need a UK sticker on your car, which you can buy at the AA shop in our UK terminal building.
- If you’re taking your own vehicle, you also need to take your log book (V5C) and your insurance certificate.
- If you’re taking a vehicle abroad that you’ve hired or leased in the UK, you’ll need a VE103 certificate.
