Your age determines which category you can obtain. If you already hold a motorcycle category, different upgrade options may apply.

For an underage candidate, where this applies, the consent of a parent or guardian is required during the procedure. We will explain exactly what is needed in your own case.

What training you need

Do you already hold a licence?

The lessons and the procedure change depending on what you already hold.

I do not hold any licence

For a first licence, the theory training also covers the general part, whichever motorcycle category you choose.

Theory training

  • 21 car theory lessons
  • 10 motorcycle theory lessons
  • 1 teaching hour of Μ.Σ.Θ.Ε.Υ.Ο. (compulsory road safety training)

Practical training

  • At least 14 practical lessons

The category you can obtain depends on your age.

I hold a category B car licence

Since you already hold a car licence, the procedure and the compulsory lessons differ from a first licence.

Motorcycle theory

  • 10 lessons

Practical training

  • 12 practical lessons

You do not repeat the 21 car theory lessons. The category available to you depends on your age and on the conditions in force.

I already hold a motorcycle licence

For the usual upgrades from one motorcycle category to a higher one, no new theory training is required.

Usual upgrade paths

  • AM → A1 / A2 / A
  • A1 → A2 / A
  • A2 → A

Practical training

  • 7 practical lessons

Exactly which upgrade is possible depends on the category you already hold, on your age and on the conditions in force.

Already hold a car licence?

Only interested in a bike up to 125cc? Code 121 may cover you.

Code 121 allows you to ride category A1 vehicles up to 125cc / 11 kW, under the conditions in force, within Greek territory.

  • You must have reached the age of 27
  • You must have held a category B car licence for more than 6 years
  • 5 practical lessons
  • No theory or practical examination is required

It can apply to a motorcycle with a clutch or an automatic one, depending on the training and the corresponding entry on the licence.

drivers-vehicles.services.gov.gr

The government fees (κρατικά παράβολα) are issued electronically through e-Paravolo, the Greek state's online fee system, and differ depending on your case: a first licence, an extension from category B, or an extension of an existing motorcycle category. Ask us and we will tell you exactly which fees apply to you.

The real training

On a motorcycle, control comes first.

Good motorcycle training starts with genuine control of the machine. On the training area we work systematically on balance, precision of control and the required test manoeuvres and, depending on the stage of your training, we continue in real traffic conditions in the wider area.

The aim is not simply to learn the test manoeuvres, but to build sound foundations and real control of the motorcycle.
