In order to drive, you must have a full or provisional driving licence. Modern licences consist of two parts; a photocard and a paper counterpart, which contain details of your name, address and date of birth, the vehicles you're allowed to drive, and details any endorsements (driving offences). If you have passed your test, your full licence will be pink, whilst provisional licences are green.
In this section, you'll find an in-depth guide to applying for a driving licence, including information on changing your licence details and replacing a lost or stolen licence. There's also details on how to inform the DVLA if you develop a medical condition or disability, as well as handy advice on applying for an International Drivers Permit (IDP) to drive abroad.
