Castilla y León Sets Aid Scheme to Help 18–30‑Year‑Olds Get Type B Driving Licences

Means‑tested payments of up to €900 are defined by income bands tied to the IPREM, and final budget and application deadlines will be set in a forthcoming convocatoria.

Overview

  • The regional order published in the official bulletin establishes the legal bases for a subsidy programme that targets residents of Castilla y León aged 18 to 30 who seek a type B driving licence.
  • Applicants must be empadronados in the region and obtain the licence within the period that the forthcoming convocatoria will specify.
  • Aid is tiered by household income with maximum amounts of €900, €750, €600, and €450 determined by multiples of the IPREM and by the documented cost of eligible expenses.
  • Approved costs include driving‑school enrolment, theoretical and practical lessons, and traffic/exam fees while medical and psychotechnical tests plus application or management charges are excluded.
  • Grants will be awarded by competitive ranking that favours lower‑income households and applies income‑reduction coefficients for large families, and the subsidy cannot exceed the real cost of the action so the convocatoria’s budget will determine how many applicants receive aid.
