Questions and answers about practice driving

Short answers to what people ask about practice driving in a car.

Where is the basic traffic course certificate?

You find the basic traffic course certificate when you log in at vegvesen.no. You also get it as a PDF in your digital mailbox or in Altinn.

How long is the basic traffic course valid?

The basic traffic course never runs out. Once you have taken it, you never need to take it again.

Can you practise driving in Sweden?

Not privately with a supervisor. The Norwegian certificate only applies in Norway, and in Sweden you need a Swedish permit and a supervisor approved there. With a Norwegian driving school and a Norwegian instructor you may still practise in Sweden.

Does the car insurance cover practice driving?

Yes. The liability insurance always applies when you practise, because the law says so. The large insurers also write that the whole car insurance applies, and you do not need to tell them.
