As driving license authorities are closed in Germany in order to minimize the spread of the Corona virus, kindly be informed that the German Federal Ministry of Transport adopted a new regulation on 9th April 2020*):

• The validity of all Non-EU driver’s licenses from foreigners will be extended to 12 months (former validity duration only six months) from date of initial registration.

• This regulation only effects driving within Germany and is in place latest until 1st of April 2021.

Please note:

*) It is recommended by the authority to contact your responsible driver licensing authority “Fahrerlaubnisbehörde / Führerscheinstelle” for each specific case.

Should you have any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us, it is our pleasure to assist you further.
