All court driving convictions must be declared on immigration applications. Fixed penalty notices (FPNs) for minor speeding that do NOT result in a court appearance generally do not need to be declared.
Foreign licence rule: If your licence is from outside the EU/EEA, you may drive in the UK for up to 12 months. After that you must exchange it at DVLA or pass the UK driving test. Driving beyond 12 months on a foreign licence is a criminal offence (LC20).

General educational information only. Always consult a criminal solicitor if charged with any driving offence, and an immigration adviser before applying for any immigration status.
