Whether you have started the process for the driving licence or not, I would strongly recommend to start studying the theory as early as possible.

 

Because of the Corona situation it is in some periodes very difficult to schedule an appointment for the theory exam in Oslo, and this theory exam must be passed at the Public Road Authorities (Statens Vegvesen) before you can book time for your driving exam.

Also for the driving exam there is a long waiting period. (Can be up till 10 weeks)

You can continue working on this process at the same time as you practice your driving.

 

If you are under 25 years - you need to complete a traffical  basic course before you can start practice driving.

​

If you are over 25 years - you do not need any courses, or to submit any forms of any kind before you start practice driving, neither you want to drive private - or at a driving school.

Just contact a driving school and apply for a driving lesson, and together you will make a plan for your driving process. 

​

If you have a foreign driving license and know how to drive, I recommend to take a trial driving lesson with a driving school to make sure that your driving is according to the Norwegian requirements.

The traffic rules are very much the same all over the world, but there are some small - but very important differences in the Norwegian model. 

​

If you have a valid licence from EU/EEA and only want to take a few driving lessons, you only have to bring your licence and Id.
