Who is this for
Residents who drive.
Requirements
- EU/EEA licences are valid in Italy. For non-EU licences the validity period after you become resident is limited. Check the exact period on the official MIT page.
- Conversion without an exam is possible only for countries with a bilateral agreement. Otherwise you must take the theory and practical exams.
