The General Traffic Department, through the Traffic Affairs and Operations Sector, announced the official launch of an online driving test appointment booking service through the "Sahel" mobile application, beginning June 1, 2025.

The new system outlines specific days for conducting driving tests based on the type of license. Tests for General Driving Licenses will be conducted every Sunday and Wednesday. Whereas the test for Motorcycle Licenses will take place every Monday and Thursday.

To schedule a driving test, applicants can open the Sahel app and log in to the Ministry of Interior's services. Navigate to the Traffic Services section and select the option Driving Test Appointments. Choose your preferred date and license category, then confirm the appointment.

The online booking feature is designed to save time, reduce administrative burdens, and provide users with a convenient and user-friendly experience.
