Ukrainian driving licences (Ukrainian: Водійське посвідчення or officially посвідчення водія на право керування транспортним засобом відповідної категорії[1][2]) are the official documents which authorize their respective holders to operate various types of motor vehicle on public roads.[3]

In 2016, a new design was introduced featuring a blue background color.[4]

In February 2020, following the launch of Diia, the Ukrainian government launched in-app digital driving licences.[5] Since then, Ukraine became the fourth country in Europe to have digital driver's licences.[6] In February 2021, Verkhovna Rada equated digital driver's licences in Diia with paper analogues. [7]

In 2022, a Regulation is adopted by the European Parliament and the council. It established the recognition of Ukrainian driving licences in the European Union when the holder enjoys temporary protection.[8]

The Ukrainian driver's licenee process, particularly for Class B (passenger cars), involves a series of steps and training requirements, although it differs from the Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) system found in Canadian provinces like Alberta.

In Ukraine, the process for obtaining a driver's licenee includes both theoretical and practical training at a driving school, followed by exams at a service centre of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. As of 2023, the Ukrainian system underwent some changes. Previously, future drivers completed both theory and practical training at a driving school before taking internal exams and then theoretical and practical exams at a service centre. The new system changes this sequence:

Theoretical Training: This is conducted in a driving school. Theory Exam: Taken at a service centre of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Practical Training: Conducted at a driving school following the theory exam. Internal Driving Test: This is followed by a driving test at the service centre. The Model Driver Training Curriculum in Ukraine mandates 64 academic hours for theory and 40 hours for practice. The entire training at a driving school, including both theory and practical, lasts at least ten weeks (2.5 months), provided the theory exam is passed on the first attempt.
