In Sweden, an application for approval is required to work as a driving instructor. In this, the applicant must, among other things, meet the driving license and suitability requirements set out above under "National requirements for approval as a driving instructor". These driving license and suitability requirements are also set for those who have acquired their professional qualifications in another state within the EEA or in Switzerland. Therefore, the Swedish Transport Agency also conducts an approval test in connection with the recognition test where the driving license and suitability requirements are checked.
