Category AM • Mopeds
Category AM is the first level of licence, for mopeds and light quadricycles that fall within the limits laid down for the category.
Your first motorcycle licence can start at 16.
* “Up to 50cc” is only a simple way of describing the usual mopeds. The actual riding entitlement is determined by the official category and by the technical characteristics of the vehicle.

Riding entitlement
Category AM gives you the right to ride mopeds and light quadricycles that fall within the specifications laid down for the category.
In everyday language you will often hear AM described as “the 50cc licence”. What matters legally, however, is not the engine size alone but the official category and the technical characteristics of the specific vehicle.

Requirements
From age 16
Category AM can be obtained once you have reached the age of 16, provided the conditions laid down are met.
For an underage candidate there are additional requirements relating to the participation and consent of the legal guardian during the procedure. We explain exactly what is needed before your file is opened.
Your case

Do you hold more than one category?
Choose the motorcycle category you already hold and that relates to the extension you want to make. If you hold more than one category, choose the motorcycle category you already have.

Comparing the categories
If you are close to 18, or you already know which bike you want to ride, it is worth looking at the entitlement of A1 before you choose a category.
The cost of training depends on whether this is a first licence or an extension of an existing one. Contact us for a detailed quote for your own case.
Government fees are separate from the school's training fee.
Where we operate
Stavroulakis Driving School is based in Agios Dimitrios and trains candidates for category AM from across Attica.
The administrative side is handled at our school in Agios Dimitrios, while practical motorcycle lessons start from the dedicated training area at Kallithea Marina.
Examples of areas we serve
If Greek is not your first language, the paperwork is often harder than the riding itself. We explain every stage of the AM procedure in English — the gov.gr application, the MyPhoto photo and signature, the e-Paravolo government fees and the Δ.Ε.Ε. Training and Examination Card that allows official training to begin.
