I will look for it but basically if I recall, people were not clear and felt that it is not possible nowadays. What I do know is that in the initial months of the crisis, people were able to exchange. However, after that, some people did not meet with success. I am not sure as to what the situation is now. Why don't you call the traffic directorate or visit to find out?

Then you need to wait to see if anyone else here has had the experience recently. Hopefully someone will write in and update. But practically speaking, as an expat, you should ideally not have an issue - it really depends on who is at the counter at that particular time. Just make sure your license is not expired at the time of trying it.
