Driving licence in Belgium

Driving licence in Belgium

In Belgium the driving licence is a governmental right given to those who request a licence for any of the categories they desire. It is required for every type of motorized vehicle. The minimum age to obtain a driving licence is: 18 years for a car, 21 years for buses and cargo vehicles and between 18 and 24 years for motorcycles depending on their horsepower.

Obtaining a driver's licence

The Belgian driving licence can be obtained after finishing a driving school and passing a two-stage test, the theory test and road test. Beside Dutch, French and German, you can also apply for the driving licence in English.[1]

If an applicant fails their first two attempts, they can not get a temporary driving licence again for a period of three years.[2] This rule was introduced on 4 December 2013.
