So I thought getting my International Driving License would be a piece of cake! German Consulate in Edinburgh told me I cannot get my Int. Driving License in Edinburgh but that I would have to go to Germany to get this done. So I did but not without checking by
phone with the German Driving License Office first and they confirmed I can get it the same day…
They also told me I needed a new “regular” Driving License since Ihave an old style license at the moment. Again same day apparently so I though no problem..

Of course when I went to the Driving License Office today they told me they could not issue me with a new Driving License Document because I was registered in Edinburgh so I would have to apply for it there.
Arghhhhhh!

To apply for it in Germany I need to register for residency. No problem.. went to the appropriate office, registered as living at my parents place and then back to the Driving License Office. They were happy now but of course the EU Driving License cannot be
issued within a day, rather it takes about 4-6 weeks! *bl**dy ….*

Ok my mom is going to collect it for me and send it out to me. Luckily I don’t intend to drive a car until I get to NZ so there is
plenty of time for it. Just as well because I need to leave my current Driving License Document here in Germany so it can be handed over when the new one gets collected…

Still, that much for trusting information given by Government Officials. One Day turnover has turned into a 4-6 weeks waiting time!

In the end I spent pretty much all day walking around the town to complete the application for the international driving license.

Oh and by the way.. it was raining all day! 😉
