After clearing theory exam, you get a letter to apply for provisional license in your commune. That letter states you can apply for 18 months or 36 months. But if you already have a license from your home country do you still have to provide 20hrs certificate or you can just show this letter and get a provisional license in order to give the practical exam?
The exam centre told me to get a provisional license so that If I learn to drive I have a valid provisional license.
A provisional license that allows you to drive on your own, irrespective of if you have a license from your home country or not, needs min 20 hours of classes and a certificate from the driving school that you get after the classes if your instructor assess you OK.
Oh ok. If I've driving license from my country then I can either take:
Provisional License: Theory certificate from driving school + 20hrs of classes affidavit
Permanent License: Practical exam cleared certificate from driving school (this with learning for 3-4 hrs of driving school & then clearing practical exam)
So I don't have to do anything with the theory certificate which I got if I'm going with 2nd option above.. correct?
Doing some more search, looks like I don't need 20hrs of classes before but need to do that after getting provisional license depending upon if I chose 18 months option.

Having passed the theory test, the new driver receives a certificate, which is given to their local authority. They will then be issued with a provisional driving licence (Permis de Conduire Provisoire, PCP/Voorlopig Rijbewijs, VRB), which is valid for either 18 or 36 months, depending on the type of training chosen.
Provisional licences come in four types, and are issued according to age and how the driver is being taught:
The 18-month PCP/VRB is for those taking lessons with a driving school
The 36-month PCP/VRB is for those who choose to learn accompanied by an adult (who must have held a valid category B licence for at least eight years)
The validity period of the provisional licence also depends on the type of licence, and the learner may have anything from three to eighteen months to take the practical test.

Did anybody do first-aid training from Red Cross for driving license? If yes, where can you register for it?
Hi
Can you please send me the number of the person, you quoted for the Driving classes and test examination?
Hello Everyone,
I have a non-EU permanent driver's license (Indian) valid till 2027. I am aware that I cannot exchange my driver's license in Belgium. I am not required to follow courses and I can do the practical exam immediately WITHOUT TAKING THE PROVISIONAL.
My situation is -
1. I have passed the theory examination in first attempt.
2. I plan to take 10 hrs of driving lessons and then appear for practical exams.
How many attempts do I have for the practical exams if I do not have a provisional license ? I did not find this information any where ?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Kr,
Roh.
Since you are a holder of a LMV license already (Light Motor Vehicle) from India, you can attempt the practical exam numerous times [cost of each exam being the only criterion ]
Cheers.
Hello Everyone,
Is there any place / website which helps me to book the practical exams with an english translator.
I tried calling in Aalst and Asse Mollem but it seems that they are not giving ank dates till end of Oct 2021.
Any other place in flanders where I can enroll for the examen ?
Thanks,
Ro.
Can you confirm this, so if you fail twice and have an Indian license, them you do not need to take 6 hours class to appear for the third time.

Final official confirmation can only be given to you by the legal authorities.
However, if you do have a valid Indian Driving License for LMV, then you are allowed to try the test multiple times even if you fail and do not have to take the 6 hours.
Cheers,

From what I am hearing from colleagues and friends who are also waiting to give exams, the driving centres are running in serious delay due to Covid and there is long waiting for tests everywhere in Belgium.
You can try Leuven, ofcourse, it might not be as easy as Asse for simplicity of the road during test.
Cheers,

@aneesh in my case I have failed the practical exam twice and I hold the Indian driving license so to take the practical exam third time are the 6 hours practical classes mandatory or I can skip it?
Can you please clarify because the driving school is saying that I have to undergo 6 hours class.
@aneesh in my case I have failed practical exam twice in Brussels ACT scharbaek and I am holding the Indian driving license to take the 3rd attempt are the 6 hours class mandatory or I can skip them?
The driving school people saying that I have to take 6 hours classes but you mentioned those will be waived off..can you please clarify?

Not sure why you had to write your post twice, but if you have FAILED your test twice, then don't you think it would be wise to have the 6 hour class, you obviously need it.
Hello Guys,
Greeting of the day!
This is really a nice discussion here but I am looking at it in 2023 so I fear the info given here may be outdated.
I am going to Belgium with work permit and need to register at Town Hall within 8 days. I also have the IDP. I have some questions, anyone please help to answer:
What is the current process to get the provisional driving license and the local driving license?
For Provisional License, is it still Therory Exam > 20 hours of Classes (Desipte having Indian Driver License for 8 years) > Provisional License?
I have IDP, can I drive until I get my residence permit with it? (For the period between landing in Belgium to the day when I will receive my residence permit)
Can someone living in Flanders go to Brussels for a driving test? I have a valid driving licence from my home country and in Brussels i can directly go for practical exam vs in Flanders i have to take 20hours for classes and wait 3 months to appear in practical exam.
@hssn601
If you have already obtained a provisional driving License- for example M18 or M36, then it is possible to "criss-cross regions" (Either Brussels or Wallonia) to take the practical exam (with your valid home country's drivers license) thereby slicing off the wait period applicable in Flanders (which is now 5 months from March), However, if you have not obtained any provisional driving License yet... then that "regional criss-cross" for a driving test, may be just an impossible "Mission-Impossible".
So after taking provisional license need to book practical exam in Brussels or Wallonia region?
