Driving licence medicals in Hamburg

Medical assessments for driving licences.

The German Driving Licence Ordinance sets different requirements for medical fitness. The evidence needed depends on the licence category, reason and competent authority’s requirements. We clarify assessment scope and a suitable appointment location through personal contact.

What this topic involves

Licence category, renewal or issue and authority requirements affect the evidence needed.

Generic statements about documents, tests or acceptance are unreliable without checking the real case.

Agree the appointment and location

Please agree a suitable appointment location in a personal conversation. Ohlenkamp 14 is the business address, not a medical service location. Do not send health information through website forms or email.
