Licence procedures

Deutsche Flagge Deutsch

The Point of Single Contact Hessen can help with many procedures. The number of administrative procedures that you can complete using it is constantly increasing. There are, however, a few procedures where some aspects of your application can be handled via the Point of Single Contact and some cannot. This applies to driving school licences, for example. You can apply for the necessary business notification through the Point of Single Contact, but unfortunately not for the required licence, as this has yet to be provided for in the appropriate law. In a case like this, although you can choose the 'Driving school licence' option, only the business notification can be submitted online. Please contact the appropriate office to obtain the licence.
