Class A with
key number 80
Class A SZ80 - what is it?
The key number 80 was actually intended for trikes that could be ridden openly from the age of 21. However, this can also be changed to class A.
There are basically different ways to obtain an open A driving license.
You can either start at a young age with category A1 and then obtain category A after a few years through the so-called “graduated driving license” or you can start category A directly at the age of 23.5.
Probably the least known way to obtain an open A driving license is with the key number 80, but you always have to weigh up whether this makes sense.
The MEGA advantage of the key number 80
If you have already obtained your A1 driving license from the age of 16 and A2 from the age of 18, you are allowed to drive an open machine from the age of 20. However, you must always gain two years of practical experience between each level and pass a practical test.
A big advantage of the SZ 80 is that you can take your training and test on the big machine. However, once you have passed the test, you are only allowed to drive class A2 machines. As soon as you reach your 24th birthday, you can switch directly to the large machine without taking the test.
The training of the SZ 80 corresponds to that of class A.
Is SZ80 an option for you?
Whether the key number 80 is an option for you depends on two factors:
- You are at least 21.5 years old, but not yet in possession of category A2, but would like to get the "big" motorcycle license one day.
- Your 24th birthday is still a long way off
Frequently asked questions about the SZ80
The motorcycle driving license A SZ80 (also known as A80 for short) is suitable for people who are between 21 and 24 years old and are currently planning to obtain an A2 driving license.
You must be at least 21 years old to obtain a category A driver's license with the code number 80. The practical training and the test are then carried out in the same way as for category A training. This means that you will also take all practical lessons and the test on a category A motorcycle.
The theory test can be taken 3 months before the 21st birthday, and the practical driving test one month before.
Until you reach the minimum age of 24, you may only ride throttled motorcycles with 48 hp in driving license category A2. From the age of 24, you may ride motorcycles without power restrictions.
Yes, if you have already obtained category B or A1, you will only have 6 double hours of theory lessons for the basic material. The class-specific material remains the same.

I had a wonderful experience in converting my Class B driving licence. The office staff were very efficient and flexible with date bookings. I did my practical exam and had all instructions explained clearly and wonderfully. Would definitely recommend this driving school especially if you want to learn in English and be taught the basic German words for the exam. Stephan did a wonderful job in ensuring that I was well prepared and well informed before my exam. The practice hours were conducted on time and were very knowledgeable. Definitely recommend this driving school!Posted on Google![]()

Class B License Conversion - I just passed my driving exam. I did my Class B License Conversion from Meine Fahrschule in Balanstraße, Giesing (Munich). I have to say this school is one of the bests. My Driving Instructor was Stephan - he was always patient and supportive - making sure I understand all the German driving rules. During the lessons, he used to inform about the mistakes by making funny jokes - making sure I don't do that driving mistake ever again. I enjoyed every lesson and found those very effective. He used to be always very responsive whenever I had a doubt. Tatjana is the best when it comes to finding an exam slot in TÜV or scheduling a driving class. A big THANKS to Stephan, Tatjana and Meine Fahrschule.Posted on Google![]()

I can confidently say from personal experience that this is a great 5-star driving school. I transferred my foreign driving license to a German one with Meine Fahrschule, and the whole process was smooth. I received all the required information and support. Patrick is an excellent driving instructor—he is patient, attentive to details, and provided many useful driving tips that helped me pass the driving exam.Posted on Google![]()

Just passed the exam today. Did my Umschreibung with them. Very good staff. My instructor Patrick was great, very good in telling me what I should improve and focus on, and giving me tips for the exam. The communication with them was great, all my exams and classes were scheduled with ease and very fast. In total I did 3 double practical classes plus a warm up before the exam.Posted on Google![]()
