Do I have to get commercial driver training before applying for a CDL in Minnesota?

Only drivers who are younger than 18 are required to get driver education and training to take CDL knowledge and skills tests.

I did not get a renewal notice for my CDL, but it is expiring soon. Can I renew without the notice?

A renewal notice is mailed at least 60 days prior to expiration, but it is not required to renew a CDL in Minnesota.

How long do I have to notify Minnesota DVS if I've moved?

You must apply for a duplicate CDL with an updated address within 30 days of moving.

How long is my Minnesota CDL valid before renewal is required?

For CDL holders who are 21 and older, the license is good for four years, renewable anytime before your birthday during the fourth year.

Do I need to get fingerprinted for a hazardous materials endorsement (HME)?

Yes. To obtain or renew an HME, you must get fingerprinted, but commercial drivers are not required to keep the endorsement when renewing.
