There are four steps to obtaining a driver’s license in Quebec.
Driving Course: Register for driving lessons recognized by the Association québecoise des transports (AQTR).
Learner’s permit: Once you pass the driving course tests, you can visit a Quebec service outlet to obtain your introductory license. A learner’s permit is valid for 18 months and requires you to drive with another fully licensed individual.
Probationary license: After having your learner’s permit for at least 12 months, you are required to pass a road test. Once you do, you receive a probationary license. You have only 4 demerit points on this license, so drive carefully.
Full License: If you maintain a good driving record for 2 years, you can obtain a class 5 driver’s license. You don’t need to pass a second road test to obtain your class 5.
