Driving permits and licenses in Spain

In Spain, the DGT manages 15 types of driving permits and licenses: AM, A1, A2, B, B+E, C1, C1+E, C, C+E, D1, D1+E, D, D+E, LCM, and LVA. Each category has its own theory exam with different question counts, time limits, and error thresholds. The B license (car) is the most requested, with 30 questions in 30 minutes and a maximum of 3 errors.

For professional permits (C, C+E, D, D+E), the theory exam is split into a common test and a specific test. Additionally, these permits usually require the CAP (Certificate of Professional Competence) to work professionally in goods or passenger transport.

The DGT exam fee is €94.05 for most permits (fee 2.1), €44.58 for LCM and LVA licenses (fee 2.2), and €28.87 for upgrading from A2 to A (fee 2.3). Each fee covers two exam attempts.
