I am about to take a driving course and have one question regarding the requirements for entering the school. I already have a driving license in my home country which is non-EU and not in the group of countries that signed the international driving conventions. I contacted the driving school in Hakaniemi and they said I would need to get the certificate from the police that I qualify for the enrollment (e.g, I can take a driving course) before I can enter their school. Then I found the Teekkarien Autokoulu that someone mentions on this forum, I contacted them and I was answered that I don't need to get anything from the police, they will handle all the paper work for me. Here is the original reply:
So the question is: is this true that I won't need any certificate from the police in order to attend the school? Why the 2 schools that I contacted gave different opinions about that?"You do not need anything from police ( threre are young girls and they know nothing at the office- we cwill help and do your application and we know what u have to do. We will do all paperworks for u,"
Thank you!
