Driving licence transfer (Service abbreviation: DLS)
After your arrival in Germany, your foreign driving licence is only valid for a maximum of 6 months. So that you can continue to be able to drive after that, we arrange for the foreign driving licence to be transferred for you.
Included here are:
- Proper application for the new driving licence
- Obtaining confirmation from the authorities (residents’ registration office)
- Classification and translation of your driving licence from your home country
- Arrangement of an appointment to take the practical and theoretical driving test at a driving school as well as the eye test and to receive instruction in first aid
A simplified transfer procedure is possible for students from EU-member states, meaning the last point mentioned is not necessary.
