Getting your trailer license
With all the new and changing rules over the past few years, it turns out that many drivers towing a trailer or caravan do not have the proper license. Avoid driving without the correct license and get your trailer license.

HOW IT WORKS
If you want to go on vacation with a caravan or tow a horse trailer, in many cases, you will need to obtain a BE license. You can only get your BE license if you already hold a car driving license. The courses are short and can be completed in 2 to 3 weeks. If you already have experience, it can even be done in just one day.
Want to know if you need a BE license? Check here or call our office for more information.
Before 1984, everyone who obtained a car license also received an E license. For those who want to tow a trailer or caravan, we offer refresher lessons. You won’t need to take an exam, but you will gain much better insight into how to drive with a trailer.

More information
We as a driving school in The Hague stand for transparency in driver education. That’s why we use the driving lesson planner, allowing both you and your parent or guardian to view everything related to your driving lessons. This way, everyone can have a tailor-made driving education.
If you want to drive with a trailer weighing more than 750 kg and if the trailer is heavier than the towing vehicle and/or if the combined weight of the trailer and your vehicle exceeds 3500 kg, then a BE license is required.
YES, the CBR requires everyone to give authorization and to submit and pay for the health declaration.
Â
No, if all goes well, you should still remember everything from when you obtained your car driving license.
If you already have experience driving with a trailer, Package 1 is usually sufficient. However, this exam is often underestimated, so it’s important to be well-prepared.
Â
Yes, but it mainly depends on your experience. We often recommend spreading the course over 2 to 3 weeks.
