This article assumes that the medical assessment appointment is already fixed and the invitation has been understood. The task now is to prepare a personal question list and only the documents expressly requested.

For review and classification of the invitation, first read Official medical assessment: invitation and records. Preparation here begins afterwards. It does not assess medical or psychological fitness. General information, not legal advice.

Legal basis and classification

Section 8 FSG provides the statutory framework for the medical report in driving licence proceedings. This article does not classify the invitation or authority letter. It begins only with preparation for an appointment that is already fixed. The verified starting point is § 8 FSG.

Documents to review

Keep practical questions in a short list: which contact handles a delay or appointment problem? In what form should the specifically requested documents be available? Which copies should be retained for your own records? Use the assessment appointment checklist. If the invitation itself is still unclear, first read Official medical assessment: invitation and records. Appointment preparation does not indicate what the later report will say.

Documents for the initial review

  • a short personal list of practical questions for the appointment
  • contact details for the office named for the already fixed appointment
  • only the findings, statements and evidence expressly requested
  • photo identification if requested for the appointment
  • copies of material already submitted for your own records

Legal basis: § 8 FSG.
