While some British expats resident in Spain have been able to exchange their UK driving licences for Spanish ones without retaking their driving test to be able to continue driving post-Brexit, some people – such as those who do not have a valid British licence or who have never passed their test – may need to sit their test in Spain to get a Spanish driving licence.

 

While learning to drive and take your driving test in Spain may sound daunting, it really doesn’t have to be difficult.

 

With access to Heniam’s specialist courses for driving in Spain conducted fully in English, driving lessons in English and help with your Spanish language to understand the specific vocabulary you will need to take your test, it’s a lot simpler than you might think to get a Spanish driving licence.

 

La Manga-based company Heniam specialises in taking care of NIEs, TIEs, visas and all manner of paperwork and official documents for expats in Spain, as well as property conveyancing for buying or selling a home in Spain. They also help Brits and other non-Spaniards to get their Spanish driving licences, guaranteeing to help English speakers obtain a B license.

 

And the process couldn’t be easier.

 

First of all, you need to prepare a theory test with 30 questions. Heniam’s course gives you access to a specialised website to practise the questions, and there are books on Spanish driving theory in English too.

 

The theory lessons and practice can be done online and you can contact your driving instructor via WhatsApp, or you can go to the physical driving school if you prefer. All you need to begin is a resident’s TIE card and they will do the rest. They’ll even monitor your progress as you go along to let you know when you’re ready to sit the exam.
