Sessions take place in the centres designated by the Prefecture of Montpellier, and the national RdvPermis platform progressively manages slot allocation.

According to the ONISR, the 1st-presentation pass rate for the B licence in department 34 stands at 55.6%. This rate is lower than the national average of 58.0%, which reflects the demanding exam conditions often observed in dense urban areas. The rate actually observed for the File Transfer may vary depending on the training followed and the driving school's own history.

For administrative procedures linked to the File Transfer, candidates in Montpellier deal mainly with the Prefecture of Montpellier and with the ANTS portal for digital requests. Expected processing times depend on the department workload; keep all original documents on hand and anticipate the validity of your health check-ups when required.
