B driving licence

To get a B driving licence, you need to be at least 18 years old and you must pass the Swedish Transport Administration's knowledge test (theory test) and driving test (driving test). A B driving licence is a type of driving licence that allows you to drive passenger cars with up to eight passengers (nine with the driver) provided that all passengers are wearing seat belts and that the vehicle is registered for eight passengers.

You may also drive other vehicles such as motorised equipment I and II, class I and II mopeds, tricycles and four-wheeled motorcycles, light trucks, off-road trailers and tractors. With a B driving licence, you can drive a passenger car or light truck with a total weight of no more than 3500 kg. You may also attach a light trailer with a total weight of no more than 750 kg, but then the total weight of the car and trailer together must not exceed 3500 kg.
