While an EU driving licence is valid in the UK, a permanent UK resident should apply for a UK driving licence.

If your Estonian driving licence has been lost, stolen or has expired, the Estonian Transport Administration (Transpordiamet) cannot issue a new licence if your residential address in the Estonian Population Registry is not in Estonia. Estonian citizens are required to submit correct details to the Estonian Population Registry and to keep them up-to-date.

A permanent UK resident should apply for a UK driving licence.

A UK driving licence can be issued based on your Estonian driving licence. If your Estonian driving licence has been lost, stolen or has expired, the Estonian Transport Administration can issue a document confirming your driving entitlement. To request this, please contact them at [email protected].

NB! The UK generally requires all official documents to be apostilled. In Estonia, apostilles are issued exclusively by notaries. Please find more information here.

If your Estonian driving licence is lost, you must report this to the Estonian Road Administration (Maanteeamet) at [email protected].
