Changing back to a UK driving licence

Nov 2, 2017 @ 11:39

Hi Ex Pats

We no longer live in Switzerland but having spent almost 4 yrs there both my husband and I handed over our UK driving licences and got Swiss ones. We'd now like to get replacement UK licences, but the DVLA say we need a certificate from the Swiss proving we did in fact swap licences over.

Has anyone heard of this? knows what this form is or how to get one...bearing in mind we now live in Cape Town!!

Thanks heaps!

Two things : neither of them are very helpful to you. The Belgian authorities took away our licences and replaced them with Belgian ones [about which we were not very pleased] meaning that we have never been able to retrieve our British ones.

Secondly, lucky you living in Cape Town now! One of the most beautiful cities in the world.

Maybe write to ehe Service cantonal de vehicules for this certificate.

Presume you would pay directly from your bank in Cape Town.
