Removal of points in the driving suitability register
You can reduce points by means of a driving aptitude seminar. The driving aptitude seminar consists of traffic education and psychological elements. With a score of 1 to 5 points, you can voluntarily attend a driving aptitude seminar. This allows you to reduce 1 point once within 5 years.
If you score between 6 and 7 points, you can also attend the driving aptitude seminar voluntarily, but without deducting points.
The driving aptitude seminar is intended to clarify the causes of the defects and to identify ways of remedying them. The outcome of the consultation is intended only for the person concerned and only communicated to the person concerned. However, the person concerned shall receive a certificate of participation for submission to the competent authority.
The responsibility lies with the county and the county-free city in which you reside.
Documents may be required. Please contact the appropriate body.
Fees may apply. Please contact the appropriate body.
Points that will be entered in the register from 01.05.2014 will be redeemed after the following period. This depends on the seriousness of the infringement:

- Offences without disqualification: 5 years
- Offences involving disqualification: 10 years
The period shall begin from the date on which the decision has legal effect. Transitional arrangements apply to points registered before 01.05.2014.
