The process

From zero to licence in 6 steps.

The Slovenian process is the same for everyone. What we add for English speakers is an instructor you can actually talk to and materials you can actually read.

1Step

Enrol and take the theory course (CPP)

The theory course is 24 school hours over six working days (Mon–Mon, 17:00–20:15), online via Zoom or in our classroom at Gerbičeva 44. It is taught in Slovenian; we give English speakers our CPP handbook in English, the English practice tests and help in the app. Course details and dates.

2Step

Medical certificate

A short examination at an occupational-medicine clinic (vision, hearing, general health), around 67–80 € in Ljubljana. Bring an ID and your glasses or lenses. Required before the theory exam and before lessons.

3Step

First-aid course and exam

Run by the Slovenian Red Cross (10 school hours + exam, 113,69 € nationwide). Register at prva-pomoc.si. Required before the practical driving exam. More about first aid.

4Step

Theory exam at the administrative unit

Booked at Upravna enota Ljubljana (Tobačna ulica 5), fee 42,10 € for the first attempt. Passing the theory exam is a legal requirement before your first driving lesson.

5Step

Driving lessons with an English-speaking instructor

Minimum 20 lessons by law; most candidates need 30–35. In the app you pick your instructor (those who speak English are marked) and see their current waiting time. Lessons are arranged directly with the instructor and start at a location that suits you where reasonable. Pay per lesson or with a package, by card or with a QR bank slip, in the app.

Current waiting time to start lessons: see Čakalna doba (Slovenian page, live number at the top).
6Step

Practical exam

Taken at the exam centre on Cesta dveh cesarjev with an examiner from the Traffic Safety Agency; fee 37,50 € per attempt. Your instructor sits in the car; you drive independently for about 50 minutes. Pass, and you get a temporary licence at the administrative unit the same day.

Prices

Exchange or top-up

Holders of a foreign licence may need only a few refresher lessons and the practical exam. We handle that too: see exchanging a foreign licence.

Questions we get from English speakers

Is the theory course available in English?

The lectures are held in Slovenian. English-speaking candidates study with our CPP handbook in English, the CPP practice tests in English and the AI teacher, with support through the app and our instructors; many pass the theory exam this way. Contact us before enrolling and we will tell you honestly what to expect at your level of Slovenian.

Can I take the exams in English?

The theory test is taken in Slovenian. If your Slovenian is not good enough, you can take it with a court interpreter that you arrange and pay for yourself. On the practical driving test no interpreter is allowed in the car, but the examiner can speak English with you if you tell the agency right after you register for the practical part. All the details: Can you take the Slovenian theory test in English?

Do I need a Slovenian address or residence?

To be issued a Slovenian licence you need registered residence in Slovenia. Enrolling in the course is possible before that, but plan the paperwork early.

How long does it take?

Typically 3–6 months from enrolment to licence if you drive regularly and pass exams on the first try.

Manual or automatic?

Both are available. An exam on an automatic gives a licence limited to automatics (code 78); on a manual, you may drive both.
