  • Exchanging EU/EEA driving licences

    You can exchange a licence issued in an EU/EEA country for a Norwegian driving licence for the corresponding category.

  • Exchange of driving licences from countries outside the EU/EEA

    You can get a Norwegian driving licence if you hold a driving licence from one of the countries outside the EU/EEA that we are mentioning here.

  • Using an EU/EEA driving licence in Norway

    You may drive in Norway if you hold a valid driving licence from another EU/EEA country. However, you are subject to Norwegian health requirements.
