Pass the practical test in a car with an automatic gearbox and your licence carries code 78: it is valid for automatic cars only. To drive a manual, you then have to go through learning and the practical test again in that type of car.
Here are the driving schools that teach in an automatic, commune by commune, with their price when we have collected it.
The theory is the same for everyone: our course is free.

Frequently asked questions
What does code 78 on a driving licence mean?
Pass the practical test in a car with an automatic gearbox and your licence carries code 78: it is valid for automatic cars only. To drive a manual, you then have to go through learning and the practical test again in that type of car.
How much does the 20-hour package in an automatic cost?
According to our records, from €1,350 to €2,155 depending on the school (35 prices collected in Belgium). These prices are indicative: only the price quoted by the school itself is binding.
Is the theory test different for an automatic?
No: the theory test is the same for every category B candidate. Only the car used for the practical test changes.
The other courses
How this ranking is built. One sorting rule: the price of the 20-hour package. No driving school can pay to move up the ranking. Listings are added as prices are collected, each with its own date.
Indicative prices, which may have changed since they were collected. Only the price quoted by the school itself is binding; any error can be reported and corrected.
The driving schools listed here are taken from the public registers of approved schools (Brussels Mobility, SPW Mobilité, Vlaamse overheid). Every listing is still being checked one by one: an error in a name, an address or a price is possible, and will be corrected as soon as it is reported to us.
Spotted an error? Open the page of the driving school concerned: it carries a “Report an error” button, and the correction is made at the source.
