Obtaining Your Drivers License
European Drivers License vs. American Drivers License
When moving from one country to another, you discover many new things that you have to take care of within a certain amount of time. ... After you have obtained these, the next important thing is to get a new driver license. In most countries you have to do this within one hundred eighty days, otherwise you can not drive with an international license for that vehicle anymore.
When my wife moved from the United States to Europe to live in The Netherlands, she had to obtain a Dutch driver license within the one hundred eighty day period. ... She then had 90 days left before her American driver’s license was not valid anymore in able to drive a car in Holland.
After checking things out at the Driver License Bureau, she learned how to obtain a Dutch driver license. The minimum age is eighteen years, you have to be in good health and there is a special exam for foreigners with a driver license. ...
For foreigners with a foreign driver license, the Dutch Driver License Bureau has a special (easier) exam but you only have one chance to do the exam. If you fail, you have to do the normal (much harder) exam as if you never had a driver’s license before.
