Pro tip when you sign up for utilities (elec, gas, internet etc) make sure each of your name's is on at least one of them for later proof of address use. Most utilities allow you to add both names which is handy.
Glad it worked out for you! When I returned to Ireland from Russia (I am still an Irish national as I didn't opt for citizenship in Russia) the process was simple I thought.
I applied online for a new passport 2,30 Wednesday afternoon got in the post Friday morning god bless Ireland and the Irish ☘️
I'm not sure which date you exchanged your SA drivers, but I exchanged mine on 24 June 2022 at 1:10pm (day you posted this video). Coincidence! \:D/
Also had my eye test at VisionExpress Liffey Valley and used same NDLS centre in Leopardstown. As you rightly mention, they're super efficient and hardly any waiting time. In and out within 20mins. They accepted my PPS card to satisfy all the requirements so that was grand too. So glad you had the same experience as I did. No long queues like back home :)
Great content and looking forward to the next vid!
Fantastic video! Love the step by step! So helpful.
You a star 🌟 thank you. Im in the recruiting process from SA to Ireland and you made made me so much more confident
So glad that these videos are helping you on your process to moving here 🥳
Thanks for the info, very useful! Did they ask for any letter from the South African RTMC confirming the validity of your SA license?
This helped. Thanks
Hi there Bianca! Thanks again for the informative video. I just have a quick question, if I may. I've got a motorcycles Learners License, do you think they'll exchange that for a temporary driving permit or something?
In Florida they print out the license then and there in the DMV office. However, a driving license in the US seems to be less about driving and more about being a 'secure document' which is used and accepted as ID wherever you go.
So you will have to produce much more info. For ex; blood type; height; eye color; SS number; donor info; voter registration info; proof of address such as a lease etc. There's more but I can't remember right now.
Normally people moan about public services but I have to say the NDLS is pretty efficient, at least my experience was. When I had to renew my old driving licence (the laminated paper type that looked like it was from 1940s) I was in and out in 10 minutes. the new one arrived in the post a couple of days later.
Wow lovely information ☺️ keep uploading king off information really helpful. I’m also from southAfrica and I’m here for 3 month I wondering if you guys can guide me to get permanent Residency here ??

Just linked a video I did a while back answering these questions - might be useful 🤗
when you get your Irish license, do they cancel your original license or do you get it back?
You hand in your SA license and they swap it out for the Irish license so you cannot have both unfortunately.
Funny story when i went to get my licence updated i had to get a medical
And an eye test there were a lot of stuff in front of the eye test chart so the docter instead of moving everthing he pulled across the curtains in the surgery snd asked me could i read the number plate on the red van acrosd the road i couldnt read it but i knew it it was my van😁😁
