Driving license exchange

So many conflicting stories can anyone help.
Is it possible to exchange your UK license for a Spanish one before having obtained residency ??
A letter of intent was put in place before 31 December but still trying to obtain residency status

No you cannot exchange your UK driving licence for a Spanish one before you obtain your TIE. However if you registered your interest to exchange before 31 December 2020, Spain have extended the grace period for exchange until 31 December 2021. The only fly in the ointment is that your UK licence becomes invalid at 30 June 2021, so you are not allowed to drive until you exchange licences.
