Driving test does not require concentrated theory study

Circular 05 also stipulates that people who need to be granted a driving license for cars and motorbikes of all classes can choose one of the following forms of theoretical study: Concentrated at a training facility; concentrated at a training facility combined with distance learning, self-study with guidance; distance learning, self-study with guidance.

Mr. Luong Duyen Thong, Head of Vehicle and Driver Management Department (Vietnam Road Administration) said that this decision is in line with the vocational training regulations of the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs. At the same time, it also creates favorable conditions for learners, suitable for the application of information technology in training but still closely manages the learning process of learners.

Accordingly, students must register to choose the form of study with the center - the place to register for training and driving license testing. For the form of distance learning, self-study with guidance, the training facility must develop a plan, training software, training content, and student management plan for enough time to report to the Department of Transport before organizing the training.

For students, they must study enough time, content, and training program to be able to take the final exam and be considered for a certificate.

Cars exempted from first inspection will have to pay a fee to prepare the application.
