Driving-licence cost calculator

Use the prices in your own quote to compare the total. This page does not assume what a licence costs or how many lessons you will need.

Add up your written quote

Enter the provider’s amounts. Enter 0 for an item already included or paid to avoid counting it twice. No market averages or preset values are used.

Check the amount for your application in the DGT’s official fee information. Check official DGT fees

Enter 0 if no additional lessons need to be included in the quote.

For example, administration, test vehicle, or other items listed in your quote.

Fill every required field with a valid amount to see the total.

Ask the provider to state what each item includes, how long the quote is valid, and what is charged separately. Check the applicable fee with the DGT.

How to compare two quotes

Enter each offer separately and compare the same line items. A total is comparable only when you know which services it covers and what it leaves out.

  • Ask for enrolment, lessons, theory and materials as separate line items with the final price shown.
  • Confirm the length of each practical lesson and how many lessons each package includes.
  • Ask whether administration, use of a test vehicle or other items are charged separately.
  • Check the provider’s written terms for validity, changes and refunds.
  • Verify the applicable fee yourself with the DGT’s official source.

How the total is calculated

Enrolment + theory/materials + medical check + DGT fee + (price per lesson × lesson count) + extras

The calculation does not compare service quality or confirm that an offer meets an administrative requirement. Check requirements with the provider and the relevant official source.

Frequently asked questions

Which amounts should I enter?
Copy the amounts from a written quote for enrolment, theory or materials, medical check, applicable fee, lesson price and lesson count. Add other quoted items under extras. If a line is missing, ask the provider whether it is included or charged separately.
Where can I find the DGT fee amount?
Check the fee that applies to your procedure on the DGT’s official fee page, then enter that amount. The applicable amount may depend on the procedure, so verify it with the official source when preparing your application.
Does the calculator predict my final spend?
No. It adds the amounts and lesson count you enter. The total only reflects those items; review the quote for missing items, price changes or services you have not included.
