Residence status and identity
Foreign residents may need residence status information, identity documents and foreign registration details for driver license services in Korea. Requirements can differ by case, so review documents before visiting.
License exchange and tests
Exchanging a foreign license for a Korean license and taking a new Korean test can have different requirements. Issuing country, translation or notarization needs and length of stay may affect the process.
Using English guidance
If Korean is difficult, check English guidance and confirm whether the office can provide foreign-language help before visiting.
Address and contact details
To avoid missing license-related notices, keep your current address and contact details accurate. If residence information changes, check the relevant guidance.
