Add Morocco to the list of 'designated countries' for driving licence exchange

Closed 1,268 signatures

What the petition asks

Driving licence holders from 'designated countries' can exchange their non-GB driving licence for a British licence. We urge the UK government to add Morocco to this list of designated countries.
Morocco has established agreements with other European countries related to licence exchanges - we believe this demonstrates that its driving standards are internationally recognised.

We think it would help Moroccan professionals and students living in the UK who rely on driving for work and daily life, and that this change would improve their mobility and employment opportunities.
