Dates for drivers

Code 95 · Driver Qualification Card

Code 95 expires every five years.

And with it, the right to drive professionally. Miss the deadline and everything stops: the driver and the vehicle.

Three drivers, three valid qualification cards. All three can drive.

When does your Code 95 expire?

Enter the date. You will see at once how much time is left and when you should start.

The date is on your Driver Qualification Card (FQN). On older driving licences it is in the line with the number 95.

See suitable dates

This calculation is a guide only. The date on your card is what counts.

Load securing is taught here by someone who inspects it on duty himself.

We do not offer the lorry driving licence itself. For that we work with a driving school and will gladly put you in touch.

Teaching in six languages

If you can do the job, language should not stop you.

Our instructors teach in German, Turkish, English, Russian, Arabic and Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian. For you as a haulier this means: your drivers do not just sit through the day. They understand the content.
