According to the new circular, from June 1, driving license test takers will not be required to study theory in person but will be able to choose their study method, including online learning.
The Ministry of Transport has just issued Circular 05/2024 on road transport, road transport support services, vehicles and drivers, including many changes in the field of training, testing and granting of driving licenses. The Circular takes effect from June 1, 2024.
According to the new circular, 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.

From June 1, driving test takers can study online.
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 their learning method with the center (where they register for training and driving license testing).
“For distance learning and guided self-study, training facilities must develop plans, training software, training content, and student management plans for sufficient time and report to the Department of Education and Training before organizing training. For students, they must complete the training time, content, and program to be tested on the subject and considered for certification,” Mr. Thong noted.
In addition to the theory that students can choose to study online, the Circular also stipulates compulsory subjects that must be studied at the training facility, including: Structure and general repair; Fire prevention, fire fighting and rescue skills; Driving techniques.
In addition to the above content, Circular 05/2024 also adds a regulation specifying that night driving practice time is calculated from 6:00 p.m. the previous day to 5:00 a.m. the next day.
In particular, this circular also stipulates the number of students allowed on a driving practice vehicle: class B1, B2 no more than 5 students and class C no more than 8 students.
