How Long Does It Take to Get a Class E License?
2 Answers
Generally, it takes about two weeks to obtain a Class E license (time to receive the license), although this also depends on how quickly you pass the exam subjects. The faster you pass, the sooner you can get your license. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Class E License: The Class E motor vehicle license is for ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, while the Class F license is for light motorcycles. The initial driver's license is valid for 6 years. You must renew it within 90 days before its expiration. If you have no record of accumulating 12 penalty points within a scoring cycle, you can renew it for a 10-year validity period. Failure to renew the license for over 1 year will result in its cancellation. 2. Driver's License Validity: If, during the six-year validity period of the motor vehicle driver's license, the driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle, the license can be renewed for a 10-year validity period. If, during the 10-year validity period, the driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle, the license can be renewed for a long-term validity period.
When I signed up at the driving school, the instructor said the E license could take about 30 days if things go fast, or up to 45 days at most. It mainly depends on how tight the local exam slots are. The theory test can be passed after just a few days of practice questions, but the slalom training takes the most time—I didn’t stop hitting the poles until the third day of practice. It’s best to ask the driving school in advance about their recent exam schedule, as this affects the license acquisition speed the most. Oh, and remember to wear protective gear during practice—falling off the bike really hurts. For the road test (Subject 3), don’t give too much throttle; some students failed immediately because they accelerated too aggressively.
