Driving Tests
Driving examination consists of two parts. The theoretical test and the practical driving test.
If you want to take the theory test in English or another language, you will need a certified court interpreter present at the theory test.
You can also decide to take the final tests (and the practice driving exam) without of an interpreter and take it in the Czech language.
But if you decide to do the theoretical exam by yourself, without the presence of an interpreter, and fail, you will not be allowed to have an interpreter at the next theoretical test.
You usually take the practical test with the teacher who taught you in the course. However, he is not allowed to interpret the exam questions or the examiner's instructions for you.

At least 25 days - if you can attend driving school every day. After completing the course, it may take another 14 days before you are asked by the municipality to take the final exam.

What course I can take in your driving school?
We only offer the couses for a car (driving license B at Czech Republic and according to an international Vienna Convention) and each foreign language course is an individual course.
We offer the training with manual or automatic gearbox.
The kind of training is your choice - both manual and automatic transmission classes are the same price.
If you have no experience with driving, the course for automatic transmission is easier.
However, if you choose to take an automatic transmission driving course, your license will be limited to driving vehicles with an automatic transmission. If you do this and decide to extend your driving license later, you will have to take the practical part of the test (i.e. practice drive only) again with a manual transmission vehicle. But such an extension is cheap and fast. And since you will already have experience with road traffic, we think the additional extension will be very easy for you.
You can also try both kinds of gearbox and later decide which gearbox you want to take the final exam with.
