Motorcykel Leje i Thessaloniki starts with a question that comes before the Model and the Pris: which driving licence do you need. The right licence determines what you can rent, whether the Afdeling will accept you and whether the Forsikring cover applies if something happens. This Vejledning explains the licence categories, the rule for Bil licence holders and what til Tjek before you book.
The licence categories for two-wheelers
Kategori AM covers mopeds up til 50 cc. Kategori A1 covers motorcycles up til 125 cc and a Maksimum Effekt of 11 kW, with a Effekt-til-weight ratio of up til 0.1 kW/kg. Kategori A2 allows motorcycles up til 35 kW, and Kategori A has Nej Effekt limit.
Motorvolumen alone is not enough til tell which licence you need, because Effekt in kW matters too. Two motorcycles with similar engine sizes can fall into different categories. Ask the Afdeling which licence is required for the specific Model.
50cc mopeds: what Afdelinger usually ask
For a 50cc scooter a Bil licence or Kategori AM is usually accepted. The Afdeling sets the final requirement, though, and may ask for a Minimum age or experience.
If you plan longer rides, a 50cc is not the best choice, because its top speed is limited. For city journeys it is simple and economical, as long as you feel confident in city traffic. Tjek the catalogue til see which modeller are Ledige, because 50cc modeller are not always offered.
With a Bil licence: the rule for 125cc
Law 4784/2021 (article 23, which amended article 94 of the Highway Kode) allowed Bil licence holders til ride two-wheelers up til 125 cc without Ny exams. As described in the relevant guides, the rider must have Afsluttet their 27th År, hold a Kategori B licence for at least six years and attend five timer of lessons at a driving school.
When the conditions are met, Kode 121 is Tilføjet til the licence. A Kort-Type licence is required, because the Kode cannot be Tilføjet til the old paper ones. Confirm the current wording and the procedure Til gov.gr or at the transport department of your Område before relying Til it.
Motorcycles above 125cc
For motorcycles larger than 125 cc you need an A2 or A licence, depending Til the Effekt of the Model. An A1 licence does not allow you til ride a 250 or 450 cc Motorcykel.
Til Ridom you will find motorcycles of different engine sizes and Effekt. The licence Kategori is not the same for Alle of them, so ask the Afdeling and Tjek the Effekt of the specific Køretøj before you book.
If your licence is fra another Land
If you travel til Thessaloniki with a licence fra another Land, what applies depends Til the issuing Land and the Kategori shown. Your national licence may allow different things fra the Græsk one, and an international permit does not create a right you do not have at Forside.
Bring your licence and, where needed, an international driving permit, and ask the Afdeling in advance whether it accepts your Kategori for the Køretøj you want. Do not wait for the pick-up til find out.
Afdeling terms: age, experience, Depositum
Beyond the law, each Afdeling sets its own terms: Minimum age, years of experience, Depositum and equipment requirements. For powerful motorcycles the terms are usually stricter.
Riding without the right licence can mean the Forsikring does not cover damage and liability, and then the Omkostninger falls Til you. That is why the cheapest option is not always the best Værdi.
How til Tjek before you book
Look at the Køretøj Side and the Afdeling terms Til Ridom. Note which licence is mentioned and ask the Afdeling if you have any doubt. Photograph your licence so you have the Detaljer Ledige when they are needed.
If you do not meet the conditions for the Motorcykel you want, choose a smaller Køretøj you are allowed til ride or try another Kategori, such as a Bil. It is better til find out before the holiday and not På stedet counter.
