NOTICE AND WARNING: This computer system is the property of the Commonwealth of Virginia and is intended for authorized users only. By accessing and using this system you are consenting to system monitoring for law enforcement and other purposes. Unauthorized use of this system may subject you to State or Federal criminal prosecution and penalties.
If you are age 18 or older and exchanging a foreign driver's license from France, Germany, Japan, Taiwan or South Korea, DMV must first verify the validity of your driver’s license with the foreign country prior to issuing you a Virginia driver's license. You will need to complete the "Exchanging a Driver's License from a Foreign Country" application (DL 7) and submit it below with a copy of your foreign license. DMV will notify you by mail after your driver's license has been verified. You do not need to complete this process if you hold a license issued by Canada. If you hold a license issued by Canada, make an appointment for in-person service by visiting www.dmvNOW.com/appt and present your Canadian driver’s license along with all other required identity and residency documents.
If you are age 18 or older and you hold a valid driver's license issued by a country other than Canada, France, Germany, Japan, South Korea, or Taiwan, you are not eligible for foreign reciprocity and must pass the two-part knowledge exam, road skills test and a vision screening. However, you may not be required to hold a learner's permit for 60 days. Make an appointment for in-person service by visiting www.dmvNOW.com/appt and present your foreign driver’s license along with all other required identity and residency documents.
Applicants under age 18 are NOT eligible to exchange a foreign license for a Virginia driver’s license and therefore must complete all testing and licensing requirements.
For more information about the requirements above, visit https://www.dmv.virginia.gov/drivers/#eligibility.asp.
Please submit legible images of your DL7 Application and your foreign driver’s license. If the images you submit are not legible, we will not be able to process your transaction.
