Municipality of De Wolden: applying to collect a driving licence

Please note: you can only apply for a driving licence if you live in the Netherlands and are registered with a municipality.

You apply for your driving license in person at the municipality where you live and are registered. You can make an appointment online.

You can also renew your driving license online. You will receive your new driving license at the counter within 2 working days. You submit the application via the RDW website. You can find out how to apply for an online driving license on the RDW website.

Health statement

When you apply for a driver's license, you sometimes have to fill in a health declaration. You can request the Health Declaration yourself online at the CBR or at the municipal counter.

An extra category

Have you gained an extra category on your driving license? Then you must have your driver's license renewed.

You pay a fee for applying for an extra drivers licence. For more information contact your municipality:  +31528378200 or gemeente@dewolden.nl .

After 5 working days, you can collect your driving licence from the municipality in person: Raadhuisstraat 2, Zuidwolde.
