Medical certificate and administrative processing
The medical examination for an exchange is a specific service. Administrative assistance, where available for your case, is another part of the process and must be explained separately.
The certificate fee does not automatically represent the total cost of the exchange. Before engaging the service, request a clear breakdown of what each module includes, which documents would be reviewed and which items would be excluded.
- Medical examination for the applicable certificate.
- Separate enquiry about administrative assistance.
- Prior clarification of the scope and budget for each part.
Whether an exchange is possible depends on the case
To help with the enquiry, state the country that issued your licence, the type of licence and what you want to resolve. Whether an exchange is possible depends on these details and the conditions applying to the official process.
The centre can help you understand the scope of its service, but an enquiry or certificate does not replace official DGT information and does not guarantee eligibility, an official appointment or approval.
What to prepare for the visit
Have the basic information about your foreign licence ready and explain whether you only want the medical certificate or also help with administration. The centre will confirm what information and documents it needs to review.
To protect your data, do not send copies of identity documents or sensitive documentation through the review form. Bring the documents you are told to bring once the visit is confirmed and use the published telephone number, email or WhatsApp for any further enquiry.
A clearer process
First describe your situation and confirm which part of the service you need. Then clarify the examination, documents and applicable fee. If you also request administrative assistance, ask what processes it covers and what outcome you can expect to receive.
For a real appointment, contact the centre directly by the published telephone number, email or WhatsApp and agree a date and time. The examination and the process with the administration have different routes and timescales.
What you may obtain and what cannot be promised
The visit may be used to complete the required examination and clarify the scope of the assistance available. At the end, ask what certificate or documentation you will receive and what the next step in your case is.
The issuing country's conditions, the licence and the official process determine the outcome. Therefore, it cannot be promised that an exchange is possible, that a particular official appointment will be available or that the DGT will approve it.
Frequently asked questions
Does the certificate fee include the whole exchange?
No. The medical certificate and administrative processing are different items. Request the scope and breakdown of each part before engaging the service.
Can any foreign licence be exchanged?
Whether it is possible depends on the issuing country, the licence and the applicable conditions. Ask about your case and check the process against official DGT information.
What information should I provide when requesting an appointment?
State the country that issued the licence and whether you want a medical examination, administrative assistance or both. For a real appointment, contact the centre directly by the published telephone number, email or WhatsApp. Do not send copies of your DNI or sensitive data through the review form.
Does the centre guarantee exchange approval?
No. Neither the certificate nor the assistance guarantees eligibility, an official appointment or a favourable DGT decision.
