    Most EU countries will allow you to transfer your licence from another member country. If you've lost it, you simply fill out a statutory declaration and voila!

    Given how open this system is to abuse, energy is being put towards closing the loophole that has seen many disqualified drivers from the U.K. back on the roads with Polish or other E.U. driving licences.

    Looks like they may have just killed it...

    I have an Australian licence. How easy is it for me to get a HK license?

    Think it's no problem according to the HK Transport Department List of Approved Countries for direct issue of Hong Kong full driving license.

    Quite easily, see section 3.1 and follow the instructions.

    Btw the list is so strange! Bangladesh, Nigeria, Pakistan are eligible but for instance Philippines, Greece, Russia ... aren't. Anyone has a clue why?

    Understood, but the Europeans like Germany, Sweden, Norway, Spain etc etc are left drivers.
