FAQ — Course from Perpignan
Is the Montpellier course valid in the Pyrénées-Orientales?
Yes. The points recovery course is approved by the Ministry of the Interior and recognised across the whole of France. Whether your licence is registered in the Pyrénées-Orientales (66), the Aude (11), or Hérault (34), your points will be credited in the national file the working day after the course.
Can I do the 2-day course from Perpignan without staying overnight?
Technically yes, but it's not advisable. The course starts at 8:30am on day one, meaning a very early departure from Perpignan (before 7am). Tiredness could affect your concentration. Staying in Montpellier the night before is the most comfortable and reliable solution.
How long does the course last?
The course lasts 2 full days: 8:30am–4:30pm each day. Attendance is mandatory for the whole of both days. Any lateness or absence may invalidate the recovery of your points.
