How to get a Swedish driving licence
- Apply for a learner’s permit (körkortstillstånd) from the Swedish Transport Agency and complete an eyesight test.
- Book a first driving lesson with us so we can assess your current level together and set a plan.
- Take your driving lessons while studying the theory in parallel.
- Complete the two mandatory risk training courses (Risk 1 and Risk 2, the skid pan).
- Book your theory test and practical driving test with the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket). You take the practical test in our car.
Frequently asked questions
Can I take the Swedish theory test in English?
Yes. Trafikverket offers the theory test in English as well as several other languages. Check the current options when you book your test.
Do you teach in any other languages?
We teach in Swedish and English.
Is an automatic licence a limitation?
For most drivers in Stockholm, no. City traffic and electric cars are automatic territory, and many learners reach test standard faster when they can focus on the traffic instead of the gearbox. Code 78 only matters if you plan to drive manual cars, and it can be removed later with one additional test.
