Your Readiness Proof

Your licence route confirmed for your country (use, exchange or new licence), a document checklist for the licensing authority and practice-test scores at pass level.

What this course is — and is not

This course prepares you for the theory test and explains licence rules. It does not replace lessons at a licensed driving school; your licensing authority decides on exchanges.

Who this is for

  • New residents who drive
  • Learners preparing for a car theory test
  • Employers relocating staff who need to drive

Better to start elsewhere

  • Practical driving lessons — these must be taken with a licensed driving school

What you will be able to do

  • Understand which rules apply to your licence where you live
  • Prepare your application to the licensing authority
  • Learn traffic rules and road signs used across Europe
  • Practise theory questions by topic
  • Know what to expect in the practical test
