I have been driving in the UAE since 2013. I recently came to UK and have received my UK licence in exchange for my UAE licence. Do I have to wait 6 months before I can apply for a position?

Anonymous asked a question to Louise C.

Change from UAE licence to UK licence does not require any further test as UAE driving licence is considered equally demanding as UK licence
