What is a student permit, and how do I apply for one?
In order for a student to be able to learn how to drive with a motoring school, they must apply for a permit given by Transport Malta. We call this the student permit. To download and later on print Transport Malta's student permit form, please click on this link.
What you need to provide on the application form:
- Medical Assessment along with a doctors stamp, which can be done by visiting a doctor (General Practitioner). This is done in order to verify that you do not have any medical condition that will make you unfit to drive.
- A clear photo of yourself with a white background. Preferably a passport photo. This photo must be glued (not stapled) on the student permit document.
- A printed copy of the students ID card, back to front.
- The rest of the information that is being asked by the application, such as the students locality, address, phone numbers etc..

What do I need to do to switch motoring schools?
In order to change to another motoring school, a student must inform their previous motoring school that they would like to change to another motoring school, and then inform the new motoring school that they would like to switch to them. The new motoring school will charge a fee of €50 to do the office work required for the switch.
-
How many lessons are required in order for me to be ready to take the test?
We believe that every student has their own abilities and therefore takes their own time to be fully ready. On average, a student takes 250 hours to be ready for the test however, that does not necessarily mean that it will be the same case for every student, and students are encouraged to understand this, because it is a completely normal thing. Not everybody is the same.
