Direcția Generală Permise de Conducere și Înmatriculări, Ministerul Afacerilor Interne

Applies the rule

The authority that issues Romanian driving licences and the international driving permit, and the one that decides whether a foreign licence can be exchanged. Its 'Documente și formulare' pages state, operation by operation, what a person must bring, and the page on exchanging a foreign licence goes further than any instrument does: it names the Order that governs the regime, states the residence condition, lists the categories of document that cannot be exchanged at all, and then sets out what the holder of a licence from the United Kingdom, Israel, South Africa, China, the United States, Canada, the United Arab Emirates, Moldova or Switzerland must additionally produce, each traced to a communication from that state's embassy. A 'Baza legală' page lists the instruments it works from with links to each.

The body that applies the rule and decides applications. It publishes what it requires, which is authoritative about its own practice but is not the text of the law.

Cannot be cited for

Administrative guidance, not law. It describes what the authority requires at the counter and can be changed without an instrument changing; where it and an instrument differ, the instrument governs and this says so by citing one. The site is an Angular application that serves a shell to a fetcher and renders only in a browser, and nothing in it is addressable except through the application's own routes - the documents are reached by clicking, and a route is not a citation of an article. It carries no text of any Act or Order: the links on 'Baza legală' all point at legislatie.just.ro, which does not answer this project at all. The former address drpciv.ro now redirects here.

Publication rhythm

Changed when an Order changes or when an embassy notifies a new verification route; the per-country paragraphs carry no dates of their own.

Re-check triggers

an amendment to Order of the Minister of Internal Affairs no. 163/2011 or to its annexes 1, 2 and 3 · a new state appearing in, or leaving, the list of particular cases on the licence exchange page · an amendment to article 83 of Emergency Ordinance 195/2002

Pages we hold
