Riding a motorcycle in spain on a full uk bike licence
The Comments |
I have a full UK car and bike licence, do i have to take a bike test in spain as well after converting my uk licence? or does the uk bike licence cover me? Can i ride on uk plated bike as long as it is out of spain every 6 months? and how long before i can return for another 6 months?

But if you become resident, either through registering as an EU citizen living Spain or by becoming Tax Resident (explained fully elsewhere) then you cannot drive / ride a non Spanish registered vehicle (except in very special circumstances, an emergency, testing etc)
Also, if you are driving on a UK licence then you must conform with requirements of obtaining medical tests as a Spanish licence holder would. If you do not, your UK DL is invalid.,

Thanks John, i'm just not sure how long i will be in spain yet. If i am in spain for more than 6 months i assume it would be better to buy a spanish bike after becoming a resident and convert my licence. A medical test should be no problem if that is the case.
I have a bike at home in UK but its too much hassle to import it when i may some day return home. Do you know if it's much easier to export from spain to uk than uk to spain?
