Learner Permits
Your first licence when you begin to learn to drive will be the Learner Permit. A learner permit is issued to enable a person to learn to drive and to apply for a driving test.
A person who takes out a first motorcycle learner permit on or after 6th December 2010 must successfully complete a course of initial basic training.
A person who takes out a first car learner permit on or after 4th April 2011 must successfully complete a course of initial basic training.
Please note that the applications for driving licences cannot be downloaded. They are available from this office (please phone 057 9346831) and from Garda Stations.
