Apply for your first driving licence using My e-Services
This service is used to grant a driving licence permit valid for 3 years. After you have been granted a permit, you can book a time for taking a driving examination. The permit must be valid when you take the driving examination tests.
Please note that you can hold only one valid driving licence permit at a time. Any new driving licence permits you apply for will replace your currently valid permit. Keep this in mind when using the e-Services to select driving licence categories.
You can apply for the first driving licence using Traficom's e-Services if you have no previous driving licence in Finland or abroad and you meet the criteria for using the service.
You will get later the results of the driving examination tests you have taken by e-mail if you enter your e-mail address in the Personal information section of Traficom's My e-Services. Submit your e-mail address before you start using the First driving licence service.
If you already have a driving licence and would like to upgrade it or renew your driving licence after it has expired, familiarise yourself with Traficom's other e-Services for driving licences.
