Seamless Transition

From foreign license to Danish approval – five steps

A clear, guided path to exchange your foreign license for a Danish approval.

01

Check your eligibility

See if your license can be exchanged and what rules apply based on your country and license category.

02

Collect your documents

Gather your license, passport/ID, CPR confirmation, photos, and any required translations.

03

We prepare the application

We prepare and submit your full application to Færdselsstyrelsen on your behalf, including all required forms. You don't need to visit the authority yourself.

04

Theory & practical test - if required

Some countries require a theory exam and/or a practical driving test before the exchange is approved.

05

Receive your Danish license

Approval typically takes 4-6 weeks. You'll receive a temporary receipt to drive legally during processing.

What you need to bring

Incomplete applications are the most common reason for delays. We review your full document package before submission and tell you exactly what is missing before we proceed.

If your license requires translation, we work with certified translators in Copenhagen. Most translations are completed within 2–3 business days.
