Sometimes when you're new to a country a task like getting your driver's license can make you feel like you're 16 years old again trying to pass your driver's test. Here's an overview of the process of getting your driver's license in Ecuador. In Ecuador, foreigners are allowed to drive with a valid international driving license or a valid driving license from their home country for up to six months. After this period, they are required to obtain an Ecuadorian driving license. To get an Ecuadorian driving license, foreigners must be at least 18 years old, have a valid cedula (Ecuadorian ID card), and pass a written and practical driving test. They must also complete a driving course at an accredited driving school. It's important to note that the driving laws and regulations are the same throughout the entire country of Ecuador. There are no specific requirements that differ based on the city, state, or region in which a foreigner lives. However, road conditions and driving customs can vary greatly from one region to another, so it's important for foreigners to familiarize themselves with local driving conditions and customs.
