Obtaining a driving permit for foreigners

Post new topic

WOW Pinoy!

Hi everybody;

Does anyone know the process of getting a driver's license (permit) in the Maldives for a foreigner? What are the pre- requisites? Do they have exams that is written in English? How much will it cost and how long it will take?

Thank you for your reply..

mooch

hi pinoy,

i am not too sure about this one, but if you do have a driving license from Philipines it shall not be a huge task. if you pay a visit to ministry of transport and civil avation, they would help you out. i assume it shall not take more than 2 weeks to obtain one.

:)

Surely i will share my experience on the requirements and processes undertaken for the benefits of everybody who needs info.
