For security reasons related to the operation of aircraft, anyone needing to drive in manoeuvring areas must hold a type P permit ("permis P") to drive on the airport.

Drivers must:

• Hold a civilian driver's licence valid in Switzerland.
• Have an Airport identity card.
• Hold a license to drive on the apron (“permis T”).
• Need to enter the manoeuvring areas at least three times a month.
• Belong to one of the following services: 
  • Genève Aéroport, Operations Division
  • Genève Aéroport, Security Division
  • Genève Aéroport, Technical Division
  • Skyguide Technical Service

We would remind you that individuals are not authorized to drive a vehicle of a type other than the one for which they have a driving licence.

The airport, in partnership with Skyguide,runs a two-day training  course that is held 4 times a year. The course dates are available on request at permis@gva.ch.

P-type driving permits ("permis P") are a partnership between Genève Aéroport and Skyguide; training costs are therefore invoiced between services by Skyguide or by Genève Aéroport.

Pre-registration is required. To register, fill out the registration form and send it to your line manager at permis@gva.ch.

Registration deadline: 1 week before the course starts.

When your registration has been OK’d by the Operations Division, you will receive a confirmation email for the requested course.

When you attend the course you must bring:

• a readable and valid copy of your civilian driver's licence,
• your Airport ID card with a T-type driving permit ("permis T"),
• something to write with.

The course will be held on every scheduled date.
