How can I replace my Lost UK Driving License: Non UK Citizen?

Elizabeth2 · Apr 1, 2014

I had a UK Driving licence, which I recently lost.

What is the process of getting a new one for non UK Citizens? Do I Need to be physically present in the UK?

Also the licence was issued to my UK Address which is no longer valid, so I would need a new one and the address changed, do I do it separately or at once?

I know there's a government portal for online applications: but is this for UK Citizens only?

Would be forever grateful for your answers!

If you do not have a UK address ie a UK resident you can not renew it.

which is of course exactly the same for UK citizens who have moved abroad

Not if you are not living in the UK. You can write to the DVLA who will send a letter proving you passed your test if you took it in the UK but you can not hold a UK licence.
