Driver NVT Concession - updated application form

Did you know that trainee HGV drivers can start driving professionally, even while they’re still training?

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) allows trainee HGV drivers to drive professionally for up to 12 months without taking part two and part four of the Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC). This is called the Driver CPC National Vocational Training (NVT) Concession.

Who qualifies for the Driver NVT concession?

Only people taking part in an approved NVT programme, or those who have passed part one and part three of the Driver CPC tests, are eligible to drive professionally in the training period. Bear in mind, the concession is only available to those who haven’t used a Driver CPC NVT concession before, and there is a fee of £25 to apply

Updated application form available on the government’s website

The DVSA has updated the application form to apply for the Driver CPC National Vocational Training (NVT) Concession.
