Driving Licence
Is it best to exchange your UK Licence for a NZ one?
And how is this done? Does this involve doing a written and/or a practical driving test? Can this be done prior to arrival in NZ? Can you keep your UK Licence one you have your NZ one? aarcc |

"You get a another license that looks a bit like the UK one."
So if you get pulled for speeding can you just show your UK one? Do they have static speed/traffic light/bus lane cameras like in the UK? aarcc |

Get to NZ, buy a copy of the highway code, complete the test questions, make and appointment and sit a 30 question multiple choice test. Dont put it off too long, its really not a big deal if you get it done.... |

Re: Driving Licence
you are legally required to carry your UK or NZ licence whenever driving although once you've got an NZ one, your UK one is not valid for driving purposes.
also - if you use your UK licence for ID you often have to supply additional ID - whereas once you have your NZ licence - cos it's linked to an address etc etc it often is accepted on its own. It really is easy to do and pass the test - as others have suggested get the road code and all the questions are in the back. |
