How to Get a Driver's License in Slovenia

Sometimes when you're new to a country a task like getting your driver's license can make you feel like you're 16 years old again trying to pass your driver's test. Here's an overview of the process of getting your driver's license in Slovenia.

In Slovenia, foreigners are allowed to drive if they have a valid international driving permit (IDP) along with their valid national driving license. The IDP is valid for one year, and it must be issued in the same country as the national driving license. The driving license must be written in the Roman alphabet or accompanied by an official translation. If a foreigner becomes a resident of Slovenia, they must exchange their national driving license for a Slovenian one within one year of obtaining residency.

As for the age requirement, the minimum age to drive a car in Slovenia is 18 years. For motorcycles, the minimum age varies depending on the engine power. For motorcycles with a power not exceeding 11 kW, the minimum age is 16 years. For motorcycles with a power exceeding 35 kW, the minimum age is 24 years or 2 years of experience with a driving license A2.

It's also important to note that Slovenia has a zero-tolerance policy for drinking and driving. The legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit is 0.05%. For drivers with less than three years of driving experience, professional drivers, and drivers of heavy vehicles, the BAC limit is 0.00%.

There are no different requirements based on the city, state, or region in Slovenia. The rules and regulations for driving are country-wide and apply to all regions of Slovenia.
