Prices exclude 23% VAT, shown at checkout.
When you become resident in Portugal, your foreign driving licence usually has to be exchanged for a Portuguese one through the IMT (Instituto da Mobilidade e dos Transportes). We prepare your file, submit the exchange request and follow it through, so you don’t have to navigate the IMT yourself.
Share your foreign licence, NIF and residence proof so we can check your route and requirements.
We assemble the documents, arrange any required translation or medical certificate, and complete the IMT application.
We lodge the exchange request (Troca de Título de Condução Estrangeiro) and follow up during verification.
Once issued, you receive your Portuguese driving licence; we guide you on handing over the original where required.
Timeline: Since 21 January 2026 the exchange is submitted online through the IMT portal; IMT usually processes a complete application within about 30–60 days (longer if it must verify your licence with the issuing authority, or if an exam is required).
