The final exam

The exam consists of a theory test (PSP) and a practical driving test.

If you wish to take the theory test in English or another language, you must arrange a certified court interpreter for the exam day. Your instructor cannot interpret during the exam.

You may also choose to take the test in Czech without an interpreter – but if you fail without one, an interpreter will not be allowed at the next attempt.

Issuing the driving licence

After passing the exam, the driving licence is issued by the transport department of the municipality with extended jurisdiction. You must prove normal residence in the Czech Republic (permanent residence, study, or work) for at least 185 days in a calendar year.

See the Czech Ministry of Transport for details on licence exchange from EU and non-EU countries.

Both forms are in Czech and cannot be translated – please fill in the originals. Your instructor will help you at the first meeting.

FAQ

How long does the course take?
At minimum 25 days if you attend every day. After completing the course, the municipality schedules the final exam (usually within 14 days). If you pass, the licence is issued within about two weeks. Plan for about 2 months from start to receiving your licence.
Manual or automatic – which should I choose?
Both options cost the same. An automatic is easier in city traffic, especially for beginners. However, an automatic-only licence can be extended to manual later with just a short practical test – relatively quick and cheap.
Do I need to attend in person?
Yes. Czech law requires a minimum number of in-person theory lessons and practical driving hours. The course also includes access to an e-learning section for self-study.
Can I exchange a foreign driving licence?
