Führerschein; Beantragung einer Neuerteilung nach Entzug

If your driver's license has been revoked by a court or an authority, you can apply for a new driver's license and for proof of a new driver's license at the responsible driver's license authority (district office or independent city).

If your driver's license has been revoked by a court or an authority, you can apply for a new driver's license at the locally responsible driver's license authority (= district office or city). The application can be submitted at the earliest six months before the expiry of a legally or judicially imposed suspension period. Without a new license, you will not have a driving license.

The driving license authority will check whether you are physically, mentally and physically fit to drive a motor vehicle again. It may also order you to submit appropriate reports - e.g. from a specialist doctor or an officially recognized assessment centre for driving fitness. As a rule, a new driving test can be waived.

The documents required depend on the individual case, the driving license category applied for and the reasons for the withdrawal. Therefore, please contact your driving license authority personally and in good time.
