Let's Get Driver's License Apostilled in the U.K.

for British

Hi! This is KICPC

Today, let me introduce how to get a driver's license apostilled in the U.K.

You may need a driver's license when you work, stay long term, travel, or study abroad.

In that case, you should have International Driver's License 

or get your driver's license issued in the U.K. apostilled.

What is Apostille?

Apostille authenticates the seals and signatures of officials on public documents 

such as birth certificates, court orders, university diplomas, 

or any other documents issued by a public authority 

so that they can be recognized in foreign countries 

that are members of the 1961 Hague Convention Treaty.

Therefore, an apostilled document is accepted in countries 

that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention.

Why is the Apostille required?

Apostille is needed to authenticate that your documents have legal validity 

both in the U.K. and the member of the Hague Apostille Convention.

What is the difference between 

International Driver's License and Apostilled one?

Let me tell you the difference between 

international driver's license and a driver's license apostilled in the U.K. 

In the case of getting an international driver's license, 

the validity is generally within one year. 

(The validity of international driver's license is different from countries.)

On the other hand, the license apostilled has the same validity 

in the U.K. and the members of the apostille convention countries. 

Also, you have to renew the international driver's license periodically.

However, the license apostilled doesn't need to renew the validity continuously.

The best advantage of being apostilled is that 

the driver's license received apostille can be exchanged for a driver's license 

from the Apostille Convention country!

Where can I get an Apostille?

The UK Foreign & Commonwealth and Development Office is the only Competent Authority

in the United Kingdom for issuing Apostilles. 

So, if you are in the U.K. now, you can get an apostille at The Legalisation Office in the U.K.
