Your Complete Delaware CDL Guide

4 Steps to a Delaware Commercial Driver's License

1. Review Delaware CDL Requirements

Before you begin the process of getting a Delaware commercial driver's license, the best thing to do is review the state CDL requirements. Some of these requirements include a minimum age requirement and CDL physical requirements.  By reviewing this information ahead of time, you will be prepared to move onto the next steps without any unexpected surprises.

2. Get Your Delaware CDL Permit

Just like getting a regular driver's license in the state of Delaware, a permit is required to move forward with the steps of obtaining a Delaware Class A CDL.  You can get a Class A CDL learner's permit by passing a series of written exams as well as a vision test.  You can review the requirements to obtaining a Delaware Class A CDL permit here (page 3).

3. Add CDL Endorsements

If you wish to add an endorsement to your Delaware CDL, you will need to pass written CDL endorsement tests.  Be sure to research your endorsements beforehand as some, such as the Hazardous Materials (HazMat) endorsement, may also require a background check before they can be added to your CDL license in Delaware. Consult the CDL endorsements section of the Delaware Department of Driver Services' website for more information (page 16).

4. Take Delaware CDL Skills Test

In Delaware, a CDL driving test must be passed in which the driver completes a 2 part exam that includes a knowledge and skills test. Once the skills test has been passed, a driver can be issued an actual CDL license from the State of Delaware. A person can take both tests at a Delaware Divison of Motor Vehicles location.
