Question about my Indian licence...

Hi Team, can you please guide me if I can drive car here in Ireland if I have full Indian driving license. I am living in Ireland for 5 years now. I have recently passed driving theory test and taking 12 lessons. Please advise me if I can get any benefits having Indian full license. Looking forward to hearing from you Kind Regards, Ashim

Our answer:

Hi Ashim,

It's permitted to drive on an Indian licence for 12 months from the first date of your arrival in Ireland, so I'm afraid that has expired for you. You'll just have to continue through the process of obtaining an Irish driving permit, I'm afraid.
