When you pass the category A1 motorcycle driving test you are issued with a certificate of competency. This certificate does not entitle you to drive as a full licence holder. You must abide by the rules of your learner permit until you are issued with a full driving licence.
You must apply for your driving licence within two years of receipt of your certificate of competency. If you don't apply for your licence within this time your certificate of competency is no longer valid and you will have to pay for and sit the driving test again.
You can apply for a driving licence online at ndls.ie with a Public Services Card and your verified MyGovID or in person at your local National Driver Licence Service centre.
Only once you are in possession of a full valid category A1 driving licence are you legally allowed to ride while unaccompanied.
