Want to know if it's possible to take the exams(theory+practical) in English. Did look it up a bit seems possible in Brussels, but i'm in West-Vlaanderen. Anyone got info on this?

I tried to study with the Dutch version theory book, but it's way too difficult to understand everything, especially i'm still learning Dutch myself.

solexhonda

Yes, you can in English. I gave it last year.

See this for more info.

MY NAME IS RASHID LARRY I LIVE IN LEUVEN AND I WANT TO TAKE THE DRIVING TEXT IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE,BECAUSE I AM STILL FOLLOWING THE DUCTH COURSE AND IT DIFFICULT TO  UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING IN DUCTH.HOPT TO READ BACK FROM U.

Kodaikanal

Hey

I did my drivers license in English and I have the theory book in English , I have used the free trials on the Internet , if somebody needs that book in English I am ready to sell for cheap price.

I took my test in gent , it was easy and they ask very easy questions m if you know theory really well ,you can clear it easily.

You have to pay 50 euro extra for the translation at test centre  and a guy will translate all the questions in the computer monitor from dutch to English , the 15seconds starts once guy finishes , after that they do small eye test. Don't panic , It was not that hard.

The total expanse including translation is 58 euro . You have to pay at test centre and you have to reserve your seat for translated exam.so register your seat before a month , then you can study in English , then it's over.

Success to all . If any one is interested in buying the English book for second hand price they are welcome.

Hi i am sorry..i don't have Belgium driving book ,i am also learning from a British theory book.. Anyway how are you preparing without the book ..wish i can help..!
Take care

aneesh

I would say - study from the Belgian book..


In http://examen.gratisrijbewijsonline.be/ … umbe/login , you can subscribe for sample theory tests. You can attempt as many times as possible, wich gives you a clear idea what type of questions to expect.

Ivancv

Guys,
Learing the British theory test book will do you no use at all.. A lot of the laws might be similar but being different countries the laws are Obviously going to be different! Not to mention the speed limits being different and in MPH rather than KM/H.
The ENGLISH version of the Belgian theory test book is only about €10 in the standaard boekhandel.
For such a small cost I think it's worth the investment considering how important the test is!

Hi Rashlarry,

If you are in Brussels, Waterstones (city center) is the shop :)

Boulevard Adolphe Max 71  1000 Brussels, Belgium, Give a call at +32 2 219 27 08 to make sure of the availability of the book.

its expensive: ~ 50 EUR. (You may ask around  for a second-hand book before buying a new one.)

Once you are done with studying the book, you can use examen.gratisrijbewijsonline.be/proefexamen/drivinglicencebelgiumbe/login to subscribe (a couple o days before the actual exam) for sample theory tests in English. You can attempt as many times as possible, which gives you a clear idea what type of questions to expect.


Good luck :)

Regards
Aneesh

(DRIVING LICENCE B : EXERCISE BOOK DRIVING IN BELGIUM FROM A TO Z)

sqrl

Hi guys.

I have recently tried to find the "Driving in Belgium From A-Z" in Belgium but apparently they are not being printed anymore.
Since I have read that certain ammount of people have this book I was wondering if anyone would upload it online and make it available for free for the people in need? - some altruistic deeds brings you only good energy&you would help to many :)

I am planning to do my exam sometimes in May and I would be really deeply grateful for this kind of help!


p.s. In the case the public uploading would not be possible my email is 'ddragovic@live.com' and would be eternaly grateful to someone who would send me one uploaded copy

Thanks a lot!

Dear,

I will appreciate if someone can help me and provide digital or hardcopy of Exercise book for next exam 10/04. I check all bookstores and libraries in Gent, but apparently without positive result. Also good advice for exam will be welcome :)

Thanks in advance!

I assume its English book that you are searching for. When I was attempting, I got my book from Waterstones book center in the center of Brussels. Unfortunately the book is not with me anymore.

http://examen.gratisrijbewijsonline.be/ … umbe/login

offers you practice exams (you pay 6 EUR or so and you can take as much mock tests as you want) - In English. If you go to HOME of that website, there are some learning resources too.

Hope this helps.

Enny Frans
