How much does a group B driving license cost in 2026?
Prices range from about CZK 16,000 to 37,000 — around CZK 25,000 on average. It depends a lot on where you live, which school you pick, and what kind of course you want. Some schools offer student discounts or installment plans. You can find the cheapest schools near you in the list above.
Can I drive from age 17 with a mentor (L17)?
Yes, you can! The L17 system lets you drive from age 17, but you need a mentor — someone who has held a B license for at least 10 years, has zero points, and no driving bans in the last 5 years. You need parental consent and completion of a standard course. You can have up to 4 mentors.

Note: this only applies within the Czech Republic.
Can I get a license for automatic only (B78)?
