How to get a license after passing the exam?

The procedure for obtaining a driver's license after the traffic police exam is as follows:

Take a turn

It must be obtained electronically, using special terminals located in the traffic police department. You can sign up for any day, but you need to remember that usually Sunday and Monday are days off at traffic police departments.

Pay the state fee

After receiving the coupon, you must pay a fee, which is 2,000 rubles. You can use various methods for payment: at the traffic police department itself, through a terminal, mobile application, etc. The details of traffic police departments are different, they need to be clarified separately so as not to be confused.

Get rights

Many people think that on the day of obtaining a license there may be a long line at the State Inspectorate office. Of course, it is not always possible to get a license right away; sometimes you need to wait several hours. Midweek is usually the least crowded, although this is not a determining factor.

Important! The ticket can be obtained at any terminal of any nearest traffic police department. However, you can get a driver’s license not at any traffic police department, but only at the one to which the driving school is assigned.

Duration of obtaining a license and a visit to the traffic police

Having completed all the necessary steps, all that remains is to wait for an SMS or e-mail notification that the application has been accepted (no more than an hour), and arrive at the State Traffic Inspectorate at the specified time. At the department, employees will direct the applicant to a separate room to take a photo of the document and issue it within 40-60 minutes.

Documents you need to take with you:

passport;
conclusion on the state of health suitable for driving the vehicle;
certificate issued by a driving school;
paid invoice for state duty.

Specifics of issuing an international certificate

Motorists planning to travel abroad by car must obtain an international driving license. How to obtain a license listed abroad through State Services after passing the exams in 2020? Many people mistakenly believe that national rights make it possible to freely visit foreign countries.

The section for obtaining an international document can be found by going through sequentially: “Transport and driving” - “Driving license” - “Obtaining an international driving license”.

In the free line, the driver indicates his passport details and his own contacts, Russian license number, place of residence and selects a traffic police department.

Special attention! The issuance of an IDP does not require a mandatory presence at the place of registration. In the “Residence Address” field, you can indicate your current location, since you can obtain your license at the nearest traffic police station.

Payment of state duty occurs according to the same scheme. Price – 1600 rubles in the terminal, 1120 rubles if payment is made through the portal. It is better to plan a trip to get a ready-made certificate a couple of days after submission, in order to fully wait for the funds to arrive at the traffic police.

The documentation package for issuing a certificate at the State Traffic Inspectorate provides for the presence of a domestic driver’s license, passport or other identity card, a check confirming payment of the state duty and one photo of 35x45 mm format on color or black and white matte paper (detailed requirements for registration are published in Appendix No. 2 (para. 25) to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation No. 206 of April 18, 2011).

Obtaining a driver's license after training at a driving school in 2021

Everyone who has successfully completed training and examination within the walls of a driving school is concerned about the further development of events. Usually the plot develops as follows: after passing the tests required by law, future motorists submit an application for a driver’s license to the traffic police. The next stage involves passing an exam at the traffic police department to which the educational institution is assigned.

Note!

As a rule, driving schools independently submit to the traffic police the necessary list of student documents. However, if there are reasons that prevent a citizen from attending the exam at the appointed time, he has the right to pick up his documents and take the exams on his own at a time convenient to him.

If there are positive results in all disciplines, a driver's license is issued. And in cases where the exams are “failed,” the citizen takes the exam again.

List of documents for obtaining a driver's license:

passport;
application (electronic format);
medical certificate confirming that there are no contraindications to driving;
certificate of completion of driving school courses;
receipt of payment of state duty.

It is important to know!

For minors, parental or legal guardian approval is required.

The application form for a driver's license is approved by law. You can fill out the form by first downloading a sample of it on the Internet. The application must provide the following personal information:

information about the branch of the traffic police to which the application is submitted;
Full name with transcript;
date, place of birth and registered address;
passport details;
type of service requested;
phone number and email;
SNILS;
date and signature.

Note!

You fill out only half of the application; the second half is intended to be completed by the employee who will accept the application.

Obtaining a driver's license: age restrictions

According to information from Federal Law No. 196 “On Road Safety” of 1995, the age for obtaining a driver’s license directly depends on the category of the vehicle. The document is issued:

Age	Category
persons over 16 years of age	category “M” and subcategory “A1”;
persons over 18 years of age	categories: “A”, “B”, “C” and subcategories “B1” and “C1”;
persons over 21 years of age	category "D" and subcategory "D1".

To obtain a driver's license to drive vehicles with trailers, you must have at least one year of driving experience in categories “B”, “C” and “D”.

Step-by-step procedure for obtaining a driver's license

Find a suitable driving school to complete a full course of theoretical and practical classes: when choosing an institution, consider only driving schools accredited by the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate.
Upon completion of the training program, you will receive a certificate of completion from the driving school.

It is important to know!

You can submit an application at the traffic police department or on the State Services website - the time for receiving the document is the same in each case.

Online application for a driver's license

The well-known State Services portal provides the opportunity to remotely submit an application for a driver’s license. This method guarantees savings of money and time, eliminating the cost of traveling to the traffic police and standing in queues.

The amount of state duty when ordering a driver’s license through the resource is only 1,400 rubles, instead of the established 2,000 rubles, which is good news. Let's consider the scheme of actions for carrying out this procedure:

register in advance: create an account and confirm your identity;
in the list of services, select the “transport and driving” category, then the “driver’s license” category;
Among the options presented, select “obtaining a driver’s license”;
mark the type of receipt to receive a discount on state fees;
fill out the application using the sample form: your personal data will be automatically loaded into the required fields if you entered them during registration;
select the time, date and branch of the traffic police where you plan to pick up your driver’s license;
After completing all fields, click on the “send application” button and wait for it to be processed;
proceed to depositing funds after registering the application, choosing the most suitable payment option;
On the appointed day, you will receive your document at the State Traffic Inspectorate.

The process of obtaining a driver's license at the traffic police

If you feel more comfortable and relaxed about visiting the State Traffic Inspectorate, check in advance the days and times for accepting applications for a driver’s license. Follow the following rules when visiting a traffic police department:

fill out the application form according to the sample (the form can be downloaded in advance on the State Traffic Inspectorate website);
provide a list of required documents - passport, medical certificate, document confirming completion of a driving school and a receipt for payment of the state fee;
Wait until the package of documents you provided is verified. If the test result is positive, you will be informed of the date and time when you can pick up your completed driver's license.

Driver's license "for free": legal ways to obtain

Surely only a few people know that you can get a driver’s license completely free of charge. A significant disadvantage of the event is that it requires more time than standard training at a driving school. Let's consider options for obtaining rights free of charge.

Directed from the military commissariat

The method is suitable for young people of military age, because training in a driving school is part of preparation for service. One important point is that you should inform about your intention to learn driving skills in advance to receive a referral from the military registration and enlistment office. It is also necessary to take into account that this training option is provided only for categories “B” and “C”. There are more of the latter, because in the army the priority is cargo vehicles.

Admission to a university or technical school

Another “working” way to study for free is to enroll in an educational institution. Even if you already have a “tower”, spending a little more time on training is far from the worst option. When training, you can focus specifically on auto mechanics classes. The main advantage of the method is to gain knowledge not only of driving, but also basic car repair skills, which definitely won’t be superfluous. An obvious, but not critical, disadvantage is the length of the training period (from a year or more).

In the direction from the labor exchange

The letter of the law states that all citizens of the Russian Federation who do not have an official job can take various courses free of charge for subsequent employment. Most often they offer training in human resources, accounting or hairdressing. But the possibility of acquiring driving skills is also possible: to do this, you need to find out when they plan to enroll groups in a driving school and inform your inspector about your desire to participate in training. Using this method, you will spend no more than 3 months.

What happens after: when and within what time frame can you get a driver’s license?

The period for issuing a driver’s license is directly dependent on the workload of a particular branch of the State Traffic Inspectorate. Practice shows that it is possible to obtain a certificate even on the day of the exam. If you are not afraid of the prospect of sitting in a long line, which usually forms at such a time, go for it. But in general, the treasured document can be picked up at any time within two years after passing the exam at the State Traffic Inspectorate (this is how long data on test results is saved). The maximum period for document processing is ten days.

Is it possible to get a driver's license in a short time?

It is not uncommon for potential car enthusiasts to rush to get their coveted rights as quickly as possible. However, admission to the examination cannot be obtained without a certificate of completion of a driving school. The training procedure usually takes from one month to six months, depending on the chosen category of transport, and it is impossible to speed up the process - classes are held according to a special program, which is approved by Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation No. 1408 of 2013.

It also makes no sense to consider the option of self-training: if previously it was possible to pay for the services of a private instructor or the help of any interested experienced driver, now having documented evidence of the knowledge gained is simply necessary.

Note!

Upon completion of driving school, you are allowed to immediately take your license; it is permissible to take the exam the very next day. However, it is necessary to take into account the retake deadlines: a week after the first and second unsuccessful attempts and 30 days if the exams failed three times. Remember: any mistakes significantly increase the procedure for obtaining rights.

Main points

Obtaining a driver's license to drive a vehicle is a simple procedure provided that certain requirements are met:

The period for receiving the document depends on the category of the vehicle and the number of attempts to pass the exams;
You can undergo training free of charge: by referral from the military commissariat, labor exchange, or by enrolling in an educational institution with an auto mechanics department;
To obtain a driver's license after the examination, you must have: a passport, a receipt for payment of the state duty, a document confirming completion of a driving school and a medical certificate;
You can submit an application for a license through the State Services portal or during a personal visit to the traffic police (in the first case, a discount is provided, and the state fee will be only 1,400 rubles).
the period for issuing a certificate after submitting an application is from five to thirty days, depending on the category of transport;
To obtain information about the readiness of the document, you can call the traffic police branch or track the status of the provision of the service on State Services.

Useful tips

Obviously, at present, the most adequate method of obtaining a driver's license is to undergo training in a driving school with a license and then successfully complete the examination procedure.

We will give valuable advice from experienced gurus in their field:

choose a suitable driving school from the list presented on the website of the State Traffic Inspectorate. Always check that you have the appropriate documentation when registering;
study the curriculum materials as thoroughly as possible;
be careful during classes and exams: even a small mistake can ruin everything;
study traffic rules and renew tickets regularly;
take as many practical classes as possible: the more intervals between them, the higher the likelihood of forgetting acquired skills and abilities.

Some may think that it is much easier to pay some money to acquire a driver's license without going to school. However, you need to understand one important thing - the modern document verification system is set up in such a way that it is simply impossible to use a fake certificate of completion of a driving school or a fictitious medical certificate. Moreover, such deception is punishable by law.

Our advice to you: be patient, master the skill of driving with our help and drive with pleasure.

The time frame for obtaining an IDP is similar to Russian rights

For reference! You can also attach a copy of your foreign passport to the package to avoid confusion with your last name.

What could be the reason for refusal to issue an international license? There are a number of nuances that lead to rejection of the issuance of international licenses:

the applicant is under 21 years of age;
officially documented ban on driving;
fictitious documentation;
error in filling out the lines or incorrectness of the source data;
server malfunctions.

Additional Information! Opening a new category in a driver’s license through State Services is also possible. The functionality of the portal allows this. Requirements for certification are individual in each case, and the guidelines for obtaining are comparable to issuing an IDP.

Obtaining a driver's license using the Internet

The easiest way to obtain a driver's license after passing the test is to do most of the work online. In this case, the candidate will need to come to the traffic police department only to obtain a driver’s license.

Register on the State Services website

To receive a service on the State Services portal, a person must receive his confirmed entry on this site. To do this you need:

Fill out the special registration form.
Additionally, indicate your SNILS data and the details of your identity document.
Personally confirm all entered registration data. There are several ways to do this. The most common confirmation option is to present your document to one of the Service Centers (the list of centers includes Russian Post). You can also receive an identity verification code by mail. Another way to verify your identity is to use an Enhanced Qualifying Electronic Signature.

If a citizen does not have a digital signature, the best option is to contact the Service Center. In this case, immediately after receiving confirmation, you can use the services of the State Services portal.

To receive confirmation of a request via mail, a person may wait for a letter for several weeks.

Expert opinion

The advantage of filing an application through the Public Services portal:

speed of application processing;
the possibility of receiving a discount when paying a fine through the website (the benefit is not always provided, but it is possible to reduce the payment by up to 50%);
the ability to control the stage of consideration of the application;
right to make a reservation.

But to obtain a license, you will still have to come to the territorial traffic police department with the originals of the necessary documents.

Apply for services on the website

After completing the registration procedure, you can begin to obtain a driver's license. To do this, just go to the service catalog, select the “Transport and Driving” category, then go to “Driver’s License”. The final stage of the search is the column “Obtaining a driver’s license...”.

In the window that opens, you must fill out an application form, in which, in addition to the motorist’s personal data, you will need to provide information about the driving school where he was trained, and the certificate received based on the results of the medical commission.

All necessary information about the driving school can be clarified by calling the contact number.

When filling out an application, a person must select the desired day and time to visit the traffic police department to provide the originals of all documents.

After filling out all the information and submitting the application, the candidate should receive a notification that the application has been confirmed. The progress of the application can be tracked directly on the website in your Personal Account.

Pay the state fee

The state fee for issuing a driver's license is 2,000 rubles. A receipt for payment is generated automatically after sending the application and is located in your personal account.

You can pay the receipt in several ways:

The easiest way to make a payment is through a bank or post office. However, these payment options may incur additional fees.
The second option is to pay the fee through the terminal, which is located in the traffic police department. With this payment option, it is necessary to prepare the entire amount without change, since the terminal does not issue it. The change can be spent on paying for other government services or transferred to a mobile phone account.
