What do these categories mean (driving licence?)?

I've been asked by my employer to detail what vehicles I'm allowed to drive, and I've checked out the direct-gov website but it wasn't too clear. Under the categories bit of the licence it says B, B1, and fkp - I know what the first two mean, but what does the fkp mean? Thanks.

    Presumably you got your licence before 1997.

    F is agricultural tractors.

    K is a mowing machine

    P is mopeds up to 50cc with maximum speed of 50 mph.

    "And if the bike had european number plate from same country where license have been isued?" Where the bike is registered is irrelevant. Only the engine capacity matters If you are 16 years old, you CANNOT legally ride a bike over 50cc on public roads in the U.K. That is the law. There are no exceptions, for any reason at all.

    The first answer is correct.

    Categories shown in capital letters are European standard groups, those in lower case letters are national categories which will vary in other EU member states.
