After receiving your Class D driving licence for the first time, you want to transport passengers commercially. How can you meet the requirements?

To transport passengers commercially with a Class D driving licence in Germany, you must have either the accelerated initial qualification or complete a professional driver training programme. These qualifications ensure you have the necessary knowledge and skills for passenger transport. A 35-hour advanced training course alone is not sufficient; it only serves as periodic training for those who already have the initial qualification. Your selections are correct—either the accelerated initial qualification or professional driver training meets the legal requirement for starting commercial passenger transport.
