Recognition of foreign training content and licences
If your place of residence is in Germany, a valid German or Austrian licence is required to fly a paraglider or hang glider in Germany.
Anyone who has completed their training or obtained a licence abroad can have this recognised by the DHV, thereby facilitating the process of obtaining a German pilot's licence.
The following are generally not recognised:
- “Befähigungsnachweise” (no longer valid since 1993)
- old Austrian “Sonderpilotenscheine”
- other invalid foreign licences
