People arriving from Ukraine into Ireland will be allowed to exchange their driver's licence with an Irish one, Transport Minister Eamon Ryan has confirmed.
Making the announcement, the Minister for Transport said the move will “make it easier” for Ukrainians fleeing the war to move around, access work, school or other public services in the Republic.
Minister Ryan signed the order today that will allow Ukrainians temporarily resident, under the Temporary Protection Directive, in Ireland to drive their cars in Ireland if they exchange their Ukrainian driving licence for an Irish licence.
