Hey!
I have been driving in the UAE for nearly 20 years(light vehicle license,manual transmission) and moving to BC soon. I am aware that Canada/BC doesn’t have a reciprocity agreement with the UAE so I am required to go through some hoops before I can drive.
As far as I know a knowledge test and a road test is needed in this case for a class 5 license.
How easy was it for anyone from the UAE to procure a driving experience letter from the northern emirates(I know dubai Rta has it is easy but my license is not from dubai)?
secondly, how did you find driving in bc/testing procedure versus driving in the uae.
lastly, how are the insurance rates for us newcomers?
Any info/personal experience would be great.
cheers
