MADISON -- Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) officials signed on Thursday, February 16th a reciprocity agreement with the Republic of Korea. That agreement allows drivers holding a South Korean driver license to exchange it for a Wisconsin driver license without having to take the knowledge, sign and road tests. Wisconsin drivers staying longer than one year in South Korea will have the same courtesy to obtain a South Korean driver license.
DMV Administrator Kristina Boardman released the following statement on this agreement:
Wisconsin has similar reciprocity agreements with Germany and France. Such agreements recognize driving experience from countries with standards as stringent as Wisconsin’s.
