1,800 euros on average. This is the cost of approving your driving license in France, according to the figures (already old) of the Ministry of Interior. A large budget for future drivers, knowing that the bill can be much more salty.
It all depends first on the level of the candidate and, therefore, on the amount of driving hours necessary to take the exam (minimum 20 hours are mandatory). But everything also depends on the management school and, therefore, in the same geographical area, it is necessary to compare, at least the management schools around their place of residence. And not only take into account the initial price shown.
Compare the different management schools
“The provisions, the financing methods are very important, which will reduce the price of the driver’s license,” explains Nicolas Gumberg, president of Vroomvroom.fr. “We will allow the candidate to find out the success rates.”
“One of the parameters that we most insist on opinions are opinions. They testify about the satisfaction of ancient students and opinions make a kind of synthesis of the quality of the driving school.”
These comparators such as Vroomvroom or that of UFC -quir allow you to have an idea of the total amount of the invoice, because some management schools will flatter it at your level by making you believe that 20 hours are enough to obtain your license. However, the average is more about 35 hours of driving. And every additional hour costs much more because it is out of package.
Do not hesitate to change the management schools, there are no rates to resume your file, it belongs to you.
What helps to reduce the cost?
However, many aids are available to reduce the invoice. The best known is the Personal training account (CPF), subject to the professional project. Keep in mind that you verify that your management school has the Qualiopi certification, which allows it to be offered. This is only the case of a third of the 12,000 centers in France.
Children under 25 can benefit from allowed a euro. This device is the equivalent of a zero rate loan. You can only ask in physical driving schools, not online.
Apprentices also have the right to a Financial assistance of 500 euros. Like Employment Applicants: There you have to approach France’s work.
I also know what there is local helpNo age or income. Almost all regions offer funds. In île-de-France, for example, this help can increase up to 1,000 euros per candidate. The municipalities also often offer license scholarships, usually against a project for the city or a few hours of volunteer in the City Council.
