    Do you know how long Transport Malta take to send someone their learner's permit? I applied over a week ago. (maltese citizen)

    • @DriveTravelLive
      @DriveTravelLive  Před 3 lety

      @Kian Hello Kian, I appreciate your question! I asked an instructor and was told that at the writing of this comment (01/07/2021) the waiting is not more than 7 days for applications submitted physically (because they can also be submitted online by applicants @ www.licenzji-xufiera.gov.mt ). However, the holiday we had during this week might have made that longer. From my previous experience, there could also be other reasons why a permit takes longer to be issued; like mistakes on the application or a particular medical condition that is written on the application, or if you recently changed address, etc... I'm not implying any of the above towards you. I'm just listing what the reasons might be, for other people reading the comments too. Best would be to contact TM and enquire about the progress of your application. I hope the above answered your question?

      @Nithish Kunjimon Hello Nithish, I appreciate & thank you for taking the time to comment and express your gratitude!! You are most welcome 😊 According to the law (and up to the writing of this comment), there is no minimum amount of lessons required in Malta. Hopefully, in the near future I will be doing a video about this, explaining in detail how many lessons an individual needs to obtain a driving licence. Just to give a brief & quick answer... not everyone requires the same amount of lessons because it relies on several factors, like previous experience, individual character, etc... Further explanation about the factors in play in the future video 😁

    • @DriveTravelLive
      @DriveTravelLive  Před 2 lety +1

      @Emil Olsen Hello Emil, regarding waiting time I have been told that at the writing of this comment, it's about 4 to 6 weeks from day of test application posting. As regards to questions before the test, yes there might be questions which are related to Vehicle Road Worthiness. In my opinion, even if there isn't, it is always vital to know them so you will be able to know how to check that your car is roadworthy for your own safety and the ones around you, because as a driver you are the one responsible for the roadworthiness of the vehicle you are driving (even if it's not your vehicle)

      @DriveTravelLive  Před 2 lety

      @Juljan Muha Hello, thank you for your question. For pricing the best would be to contact a Driving School in Malta. I'm sorry that I cannot help further about pricing. My advice would be to not just go after pricing, as it might cost you much more in the long run. I would go for a school that provides quality service. Usually you can get an idea of the quality from the way they communicate with you for pricing requests. The pricing also depends on every individual, as everyone has different requirements when it comes to learning to drive. I suggest seeing this video for more info about this: czcams.com/video/RSlH1_y7-Hg/video.html

I saw on Malta transport website there is written UAE holder license can exchange but one my friend said this option is not for foreigners who lived in UAE, only UAE nationals could exchange license. So can you confirm from Malta transport authorities foreigners from third world country who used live in UAE could exchange license or need to take full training.. Will be Highly appreciate your answer

      @DriveTravelLive  Před 2 lety +1

      @Kashif Latif Hello and thank you for your detailed question! I read briefly through the law (which you can download from here - theorytestmalta.com/hrf_faq/where-can-i-view-the-driving-licence-regulations-law-of-malta/ ) and from my brief look I didn't find any information where it says that you have to be also a UAE national to exchange it to a Maltese one. It only says that you can exchange a UAE licence without any testing procedures (mutual recognition). You can find this information on page 76 (Schedule Fourteen) on that download link. I also believe that to be able to exchange your UAE license to a Maltese one you need to be a resident in Malta (with a residence card) for at least 185 days. You can find this information at the beginning of the linked document above or search the sentence 'normal residence'. More than that, the best would be to send an email to Transport Malta on their main email you find on their website, because like so you will have the information directly from them in writing. I hope that I answered your questions. I tried as best I can. if you need something from the above explanation clarified feel free to ask me. Let us know the answer from TM.

      @libu joy Hello, thank you for watching the video. If your driving licence is one from Qatar you can drive in Malta with an international permit for one year, then you would have to do the licence procedure as explained in this video you made a comment on. I suggest starting the process 6 months before the one years is due so you would have enough time to obtain the driving license of Malta and then continue driving after the one year.

That includes 4 "maneuvering" lessons, 16 driving lessons, 4 "technical driving facility" lessons, 29 lessons of theory, medical assesment, first aid certificate, photography for the license, and a testing fee. One lesson is 45 minutes and additional lessons cost 73 Euros. 25% of total cost is a VAT. It may not be exactly average but those prices are in the ballpark.
