I can't remember exactly how long it took for mine to come but I voted 13-14 days because it took a couple of weeks for mine to come.

Re: How long did it take to get your driving license through the post once you passedI passed my driving test today
I went straight to the motor/tax office. The woman basically said " oh we are understaffed so it will be 2 weeks before we even start to process any forms ". I expect to get mine in about 3 weeks if im lucky. I know the cops should be ok if I get pulled over but I want the pink paper now. Least I paid 25 euro so I will get a 10 year licence wont have to go through this waiting crap again 
I had to wait nearly 3 months for my test Ireland isn't efficient at all. If there is a problem with it when it arrives I will march into that office and be all 
with them.

Re: How long did it take to get your driving license through the post once you passedI passed on 14th June but didn't get my license until last Friday, so just over three weeks.
When I rang them they said the DSA have bug delays notifying the DVLA of test results at the minute.
