In France, the driving licence (French: Permis de conduire) is a governmental right given to those who request a licence for any of the categories they desire. It is required for every type of motorized vehicle. The minimum age to obtain a driving licence is: sixteen years for a motorcycle, eighteen years for a car, and twenty-one years for buses and cargo vehicles.
Since 2013, the French driving licence format was changed from that of a pink booklet to a credit card-sized card.
Obtaining a driver's licence
The French driving licence can be obtained after finishing a driving school and passing a two-stage test, the theory test and road test.
