Drivers with non-UK licenses
For details, advice and information about driving in the UK on a foreign licence, please check out the DVLA website.
Drivers are personally responsible for ensuring that they are licensed to drive, and the Transport Office takes a cautious view if there are grey areas. For example, whilst it is clear that drivers without D1 on their UK licences (i.e. post-97 drivers) may drive minibuses if certain conditions are met, it is not clear if this applies to non-UK licence-holders and therefore drivers who do not hold a UK, Isle of Man, or Channel Islands licence may not drive minibuses.
