How to get your Driver's License in CABA. (Step-by-step guide)

[Longtime]

Thank you. Very useful info.
Question: If you get the Provisoria license, what happens after 6 months, do you have to go back in for the permanent license? Is that what Principiante means? Also, anybody tried driving with an international DL?

You don't have to go back and get a new one it's not physically a different licence they just put a date on the back from when you stop being Principiante. Sorry I used the wrong word

International or other driving licenses aren't recognized once you have a DNI or once you have permanent residence one of the two.

Thank you Darksider415 and Ronnie. I will be embarking in this adventure in a few months and it is good to have the details ahead of arriving there. I will be considering getting my license as one of my first quests! Seriously, it sounds like quite a quest, medieval or D&D or something...

To be honest it would have been fairly straightforward had I not went down the kafka-esque bureaucratic nightmare of trying to have my UK licence accepted to avoid being principiante.

It's not really so bad. I just documented everything thoroughly in a way that you should be able to just walk in and do the procedure with zero problems and zero restrictions. It's all about preparation.

I am deaf in one ear and have to have a “special” evaluation done but I was told that it can be done at the ACÁ sede, did they do an eye exam also as a part of the evaluation when you made the appointment? I was under the impression that I needed to get and bring an eye exam to the appointment?

They did a quick eye exam as part of the appointment. It's all done in one go, so it's not bad once you have the documents in order.
