You can still drive legally in Denmark if…

If you’re looking to drive in Denmark with your foreign driving license, there are certain prerequisites to keep in mind:

  • If you’re a non-resident, you can use your foreign license provided it’s written in Latin script. In case it’s not, you’ll need an official translation in either English or Danish from a public body in the issuing country.
  • For residents of Denmark with licenses issued by an EU country, Faroe Islands, Iceland, Liechtenstein, or Norway, you can continue to drive as long as the license is valid.
  • Ukrainian license holders residing temporarily in Denmark due to circumstances in Ukraine can also drive using their Ukrainian license.
  • For those permanently residing in Denmark with a Greenland license, it’s acceptable if complemented with 2 driving lessons taken in Denmark.

In any other situations, you’re required to exchange your foreign driving license for a Danish one to drive legally in Denmark.

Great driving school for English speakers!
Really enjoyed my experience with this driving school! Morten was a patient, supportive and helpful theory instructor. Jonas was a calm, reassuring, and relaxed driving instructor throughout every lesson. His patient approach made learning enjoyable and helped me feel confident behind the wheel. Highly recommended!

Øzkan is the best instructor ever! He has a lot of patience and really knows how to guide and teach. ( I have friends who dont know how to do paralel parking but I tought them, as Øzkan showed me the right way). Moreover, Øzkan is very honest and always gives good feedback, so one knows where the mistakes are and what should be improved before going to the final test.

I had an amazing experience at DriveTrafic having Miriam as my driving instructor throughout the whole course. She has been patient, helpful and very flexible when booking my driving appointments. She is a great instructor providing examples which are easy to understand and follow, and with on point feedback highlighting what to focus next. My experience has been more than amazing and I highly recommend her and DriveTrafik especially if you need to take the course on English.

I passed my driving exam on the first try while exchanging my licence. I went out driving with Ole a couple of times, and he was very professional, polite, and patient. He quickly identified my strengths and weaknesses and helped me improve my driving skills.

On the day of the exam, Sanja went with me and was very calm and supportive, which really helped reduce my stress. Overall, it was a smooth and positive experience, and I’m very happy with the service. I would definitely recommend this driving school.
