Drop into one of our four branches without an appointment. You probably already know which licence category is right for you \u2013 otherwise, we'll be happy to advise you in person. After signing up, you can start your theory training straight away \u2013 the basic syllabus runs at selected branches. You will also get access to our app (learning app, \u20ac40): this is how you prepare for your theory test, book your driving lessons and reserve your first appointments directly.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

driving licence application<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Submit the application as early as possible \u2013 without it, you are not allowed to take the theory test. However, you can get started straight away with theory and driving lessons regardless of this. You need: an eye test (max. 2 years old), a biometric passport photo and your ID. The first aid course is valid for life \u2013 if you already have a driving licence, you don't need a new one (only necessary for a first-time application). You submit the application online<\/b> or hand it in at a Frankfurt Citizens' Registration Office<\/b> \u2013 except that only those who are exchanging a foreign driving licence apply directly to the driving licensing office. We will explain the exact process during your registration appointment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
