Re: Driver's Licence conversion

Quote:
Hi

Just read through this thread but it seems its more about converting a SA driving license, is this different to converting an EU licence?

We need to convert our UK licences over before our 12 months are up which is soon!! so we need to get it sorted to avoid having to take another test but this mention of eye tests, do you need to take an eye test even if you switch your license over before the 12 months deadline?

Also I have been told we need a form to fill in to change the license over, I saw this link in the above thread http://www.stva.zh.ch/internet/ds/st...aw_auslfa.html are the pdf's on this page the forms we need to fill out?

Thanks in advance for any help

Nicky
I converted my UK license start of 2006.
Yes, you need the eye test. Cost me CHF 20.

That link is the one I used.

I filled in my bit, Optician filled on section 3, then I took it to my local government offices (Gemeinde or Kreisbüro).
And I forget if they or I sent it to the stva.

Took a week to get ms Swiss card sized one.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy
