Step by Step How to Get a Driver's License in Baja California

In addition to the 18 years old requirement to apply, there are other requirements set by Mexican law to obtain a driver's license in Baja California.

The first step to applying for a Baja California driver's license is to collect all the required requirements for the process. In addition to the requirement that the application be initiated at the age of 18, Mexican law requires:

1. Original and copy of an identity document.

2. An original medical certificate issued by a public or private healthcare facility accredited by the government of Baja California.

3. Proof of residence or domicile in the case of citizens. When it comes to foreigners, the evidence must take into account their lawful stay in the country.

4. Pass a driving test.

5. Master Spanish in both reading and writing.

6. Pay the fee corresponding to the procedure.

Minors must not only prove that they have the consent of their parents or legal guardians, but also show identification along with proof of residence. By this consent, which must be presented in the form of a document, the teenager will prove that his parents or guardians are ready to take responsibility for any fact arising from bad habits or unexpected events.

The application process for a new license in Baja California (or renewal) must be done at the Revenue Collection Authority authorized by the Department of the Treasury. It is important to keep in mind that these offices are the only ones authorized to carry out this type of procedure and any other way to obtain this document should be considered illegal.
