2. How do I get my first learner permit?

To apply for a Category B learner permit, you must be at least 17 years old, be ordinarily resident in the Republic of Ireland, hold a current theory test certificate, and have had an eyesight report form (Form D.502) completed by an optician or doctor not more than one month before submitting your application.

You can get a learner permit application form (Form D.201) from your local Motor Tax Office, Garda Station, Citizens Information Centre, or public library. Alternatively, visit this webpage to request a form by post. (You cannot download and print Form D.201 because it contains adhesive labels.)

Take (or post) the completed application form to your local Motor Tax Office, along with:
A birth certificate or passport (originals or certified copies; photocopies not accepted)
An eyesight report form completed by an optician or doctor within the past month
Your original theory test certificate
Two identical passport-sized photographs, both signed on the back
The application fee (cheque or postal order required if applying by post; cash accepted if applying in person)
If you are over 70 years old, suffer from a disability or disease that may affect your ability to drive, and/or take drugs or medication that could impair your ability to drive safely, you will also have to submit a medical report form (Form D.501) completed by a registered medical practitioner.

In most cases, your learner permit will be posted out to you within a few days.
