Medical certificate for motor vehicle drivers
In order to apply for a medical certificate for receiving a driver's license, the physician issuing the certificate must have access to the client's medical history and the electronic health declaration previously filled out by the client. The health declaration must be filled out no less than 30 days before the appointment.
The doctor reserves the right to request additional testing and not to issue the certificate if the client’s state of health does not meet the requirements. In most cases, the additional testing can be concluded on site. The price for the testing shall be added to the cost of the medical certificate. We recommend that patients who have a chronic illness that requires constant monitoring, as well as patients with addiction problems refer to their treating physician (e.g. family doctor) to request a health certificate.
The service shall be paid for even if the doctor decides not to issue the certificate.
