You will sometimes be asked to complete a health certificate (verklaring van geschiktheid), which proves that you are physically and mentally capable of driving a vehicle. The certificate is available from your local council. You need a health certificate in the following situations: You have an EU/EEA or Swiss driving licence valid for categories C, CE, C1, D, etc. You use the 30% tax facility. You have a driving licence from the Netherlands Antilles or Aruba. You come from a country that has special arrangements in place.
Send your completed health certificate to the Dutch Central Office for Motor Vehicle Driver Testing (Centrale Bureau Rijvaardigheid, CBR). They will inform you once the certificate has been registered or if you need to complete additional tests. You can then apply for your driving licence.
