Learner's Licence Test Date Retest P-plate

Q1. What is the minimum age?

For private car / LGV, learners are generally required to be at least 18 and apply for TD555 learner's licence.

Q2. How many lessons do I need?

There is no fixed number. It depends on your baseline, lesson frequency and consistency. We estimate after assessment.

Q3. What if I failed before?

Start with fault analysis, then run focused correction sessions. Repeat candidates should fix root causes, not only add volume.

Q4. Do I need a probationary licence first?

For private car and LGV, a 12-month probationary period is generally required before full licence application.

Q5. Is English instruction available?

Yes. Both website and core lesson guidance are available in Traditional Chinese and English.

Q6. Fastest way to start?

Send your status (beginner/repeat/switching) and availability via WhatsApp for a practical starting plan.
