Pass the required aptitude, written and practical tests for Karimen.
With your provisional licence, complete the required supervised road practice.
Take the written and practical tests required for your full licence.
Complete any required ordinary-vehicle and first-aid courses, then the licence-issuance procedure.
The route and exemptions depend on your circumstances. Eligible residents of other prefectures may take a skill inspection in Saitama and apply for their licence in their home prefecture. We confirm the required documents, appointments and order of steps for your case.
Additional costs: Official application, examination, test-vehicle and licence-issuance fees, plus the Beginner first-aid course fee, are separate from the course price. We confirm any required ordinary-vehicle course and its cost before enrolment. Retakes, extra lessons and extra assistance can add to the total.

After passing the required checks, complete the licence-issuance procedure.
Knowledge or practical checks may be exempt depending on the licence’s issuing country or region and other conditions. Eligibility, appointments and procedures are checked for your place of residence. Document screening and later tests may take place on separate days.

Ask about getting here →We operate under the notified driving-school system (届出自動車教習所), rather than the Public Safety Commission-designated school system. We provide training and licensing-process support. Official tests, eligibility and any exemptions are determined by the licensing authority.
The Beginner Course supports the direct-exam route, including people who already have driving experience. If you hold a foreign licence, ask about Kirikae so your conversion options can be checked first. Separate driving practice and online theory courses are also available.
Yes, eligible students living outside Saitama can train here. The team confirms the required training documentation and procedure for your case. Lessons in Saitama do not automatically make every official test or licence-issuance step available there; the relevant authorities confirm the requirements.
The Beginner course guide gives about two months as an initial reference, not a guaranteed completion time. Test availability, your progress and retakes can change the schedule. Passing or a specific licence date cannot be guaranteed.
A typical direct-exam route is: (1) Karimen: pass the required provisional-licence tests. (2) Complete the required road practice. (3) Honmen: pass the required full-licence tests. (4) Complete the required courses and licence-issuance procedure. Unless exempt, ordinary-vehicle and first-aid courses are normally required after passing the practical test and before the licence is issued. The team will confirm the route and any accepted prior training for your case.
For the ordinary first-class licence route: Karimen has 50 questions and requires 45 points out of 50. Honmen has 95 questions: 90 text questions and 5 illustrated questions, worth 100 points in total. The passing score is 90 points, not simply 90 correct answers. These figures are for the Beginner route, not the foreign-licence conversion test.
Standard is our most popular plan: ¥165,000 including tax, with 15 lessons of 45 minutes (11 hours 15 minutes total), online theory, licence-centre assistance and the listed training certificate.

Choose according to your experience and support needs; additional practice costs ¥6,000 per 45-minute lesson.
For this direct-exam route, official tests are conducted by the licensing authority, not by Dynamic Driving Lessons. In Saitama, the Driver's Licence Center is in Konosu. The appropriate venue and application procedure must be confirmed for your residence and circumstances. The practice venue in Saitama City is a different facility.
