Commercial motor carrier permit

To drive professionally, you need a motor carrier permit. We offer tests for the commercial motor carrier permit for buses and goods, and also for taxis.

The Swedish Transport Agency tests whether you are suitable to hold a commercial motor carrier permit. You will not be allowed to take the tests if you have a suspension period registered with the Swedish Transport Agency.
