Most Expensive Driver’s License

The most expensive driver’s license in the world isn’t some revenue-generator for a local government. In fact, the license allows you to drive all over the world—as long as you’re driving in a Formula One Grand Prix.

The FIA Super License is issued only to holders of Grade A competition licenses—and even then only if the driver also happens to be the reigning champion in a lesser motorsport or just has an extremely good track record. Fewer than fifty drivers hold the Super License and the price is determined by how many World Championship points the driver has earned.

This year, the price of the world’s most expensive driver’s license is set to rise to €10,400 plus €2,100 per point—US $13,718 and $2,770 respectively. The rate hike means that Lewis Hamilton, last year’s World Championship winner with 98 points, will have to pay $285,189 to renew his Super License this year. A newcomer with no points, on the other hand, would only have to pay the $13,718 to get their license.
