The WA State Department of Licensing oversee's the issuing of a license. If you are lucky driver, with an international license from the countries listed below - all you need to do is walk in and get a license.
- Germany
If you are not included in my not neccesarily comprehensive list above, you will have to take both a written test and pass a driving test in order to get your license. Luckily the state has a great website with information.
If you are not going to drive, I recommend a WA State ID - which you can use in place of your passport.
There are also online tests to practice before you head over to one of the local test locations. I'd recommend passing at 90% or greater, since the actual tests are a bit harder.
You can pick up a Drivers Guide at the different Eastside test locations. While you can pick up your guide anywhere, when you go to take the test, we have had a lot of issues with the Kirkland location. Just skip them. I've had good luck with Bellevue, and North Bend.
Here is the list of local offices:
This website rocks - it shows the local offices, has directions on how to get to them, and even shows the wait times in the lobby. My recommendation: be at the front door waiting in line when they open.
