American driver's licence for Germans
-
The acquisition of a US drivers license is much simpler for German citizens in the USA than for American citizens in Germany. Either an applicant can claim the driver license reciprocity agreement between a US state and Germany (if the US state has one) and pay the administrative fees or apply as a first time driver. Applying as a first time driver generally requires passing a short written and driving test, both of which can usually be preformed within a few hours and for under $50. As there is no uniform requirement for all 50 US states, please contact the local US state authorities for the details. In the USA drivers licenses are regulated exclusively by each US state (Texas, California, etc.) not by the federal government as is the case in Germany.
