Exchanging crappy old pink paper lice

    ...Except I live in the UK now. Has anyone managed to get a new credit-card style driving licence while living abroad? Proof of address is where I'd struggle!

    As we all know, the pink ones are so rubbish, had to use it to get my new passport and the solicitor witnessing it was incredulous that it was an actual licence.

    I'm guessing the options are, somehow get proof of address, using my family home in Dublin, or suck it up and transfer to a UK licence? :(

    you cant submit a picture, you have to turn up at an NDLS to have your photo taken

    Also you are not entitled to an irish driving license , if yo are not " normally resident " in Ireland
