New conditions for obtaining a driver’s licence

From now on, one can take the theory part of a driving test (KRESZ) 3 months before their 17. birthday, and they can take the practical test at the age of 17 – these are the conditions for getting a driver’s licence for car. 

However, some conditions were aggravated in the last month. The most important changes are noted beneath. The conditions were last modified in August- according to the last regulation, one must apply for the theory test 9 months after starting the theory course, and must complete it in a year from that exact date.

According to a professional portal called Tanulóvezető.eu, the regulation passed in January and valid from February also states that the 9 month deadline doesn’t concern the application only. One must take the first exam 9 months after they start the course- noted Origo.

This was passed without informing the public widely. If the deadline expires, one must take the whole course again as it will be no longer valid.
