Moving to Jersey: Apply for Jersey driving license

Applying for a Jersey driving licence

​Before you can legally drive a vehicle on the road, you need to have a valid driving licence for the category of the vehicle you want to drive.

If you’re applying for your Jersey driving licence for the first time, you must visit your parish hall. If you’re renewing or replacing an existing licence, you can do it online. You’ll need:

• to complete an application form (available from your parish hall)
  
• one passport sized colour photograph
  
• the licence fee (£50 for a full licence and £20 for a provisional licence)

Using a foreign driving licence in Jersey

If you usually live outside Jersey and you’re staying in Jersey for less than 12 months, you can drive on your own non-Jersey driving licence. 

Anyone who has a foreign driving licence and becomes resident in Jersey or intends to stay for more than 12 months, is required to exchange that foreign driving licence for a Jersey licence.

Below is a list of countries fro which Jersey will accept driving licences for exchange. To exchange your foreign licence, you need to visit your local parish hall.
