Get a moped driving license – your guide to AM qualification

Driving a moped gives you a sense of freedom and independence. With an AM driving license, you can drive several different types of vehicles, including two-wheeled mopeds, moped cars, A-tractors and EPA tractors. Here we go over what is required to get an AM driving license and what the training includes.

What is an AM driving license?

An AM driving license entitles you to drive a class I moped, also called an EU moped, which has a maximum speed of 45 km/h. In addition to two-wheeled mopeds, you can also drive moped cars, A-tractors and EPA-tractors with this license. The moped must be registered, have a registration plate and be insured. To get an AM driving license, you must be 15 years old. More about AM driving licenses at the Swedish Transport Administration
