New regulations on driver training

Accordingly, the new regulation clearly states that for those studying motorcycle classes A1, A and B1, the theoretical content must ensure the full training program and they can choose one of two forms: Self-study of theoretical subjects according to Government regulations or study at a driving training facility. Practical content must be studied at a driving training facility.

For grades B, C1, C, D1, D2, D, BE, C1E, CE, D1E, D2E and DE, theoretical content can be studied in a centralized form, via distance learning or self-study with guidance, according to Government regulations. However, practical content must be studied centrally at the training facility.

Driving training facilities are required to develop a course duration of no more than 90 days for car driving training programs. On a class B driving practice vehicle, no more than 5 students; on a class C1 vehicle, no more than 8 students.

Learners will be tested at the end of the course at the training facility, including two main contents. Specifically, in theory, the test will be based on a set of theoretical test questions and simulated traffic situations, applied consistently according to the procedures of the Ministry of Public Security .

In terms of practice, the test covers both sequential driving and road driving. The learning outcomes will be evaluated and the course will be considered completed if the student meets all of the above requirements, corresponding to the registered driving license class.

The Circular takes effect from September 1, 2025.
