Steps in Germany

Drivers need a German licence and the driver qualification, not a recognised degree.

  1. Step 1: Your licence

    You hold a licence for the vehicle class from your home country.

  2. Step 2: Qualify within 15 months

    With Federal Employment Agency approval, your employer's contract includes the training for a German licence and the driver qualification.

  3. Step 3: Drive for your employer

    The qualification is needed for classes C1, C1E, C, CE, D1, D1E, D and DE. Then you work on the job offer from the same employer.
