In eight steps

Getting your licence has several steps. You do them one after the other. If you prepare well and learn step by step, you reach your goal quickly and safely.

  1. Sign up at our driving school

    Just come to our driving school and sign up. You don't need an appointment. Now it's official: you have started your licence.

  2. First aid course, eye test and photos

    You need a certificate for a first aid course, an eye test and a biometric photo. When you sign up, we tell you where to get them.

  3. Apply at the Straßenverkehrsamt Düsseldorf

    When you have all your documents, you apply at the Straßenverkehrsamt (opens in a new tab). This is the city's driving licence office. If you live in Düsseldorf, you can also apply at any Bürgerbüro (city office).

  4. Theory lessons
