Denmark driving license in UK

Post by habibcs » Tue Aug 28, 2012 8:52 am

Hi,

I am bringing this from another topic

EUsmileWEallsmile is right about asking for the passport back.

But on the topic of driver's licenses: For driving a car in Europe, there is no need to get a new driver's license in the UK. You can continue to drive with the Danish license in both the UK and in Denmark. You can own and register cars in both places.
Where is the confirmation for this: If I have a Denmark driving license then I can drive and own the car for any duration (more than 12 months) and without the need for UK driving license?
(Because I was searching and could not find it)

I personally have a UAE driving license but my EEA national spouse has a Denmark one. So I want to basically search for the driving license conditions in UK for both ones.

Thanks
