Application Details

Bus Driver's Vocational Licence (BDVL) is required for drivers of buses registered as Private Hire Buses, School Buses or Excursion Buses, associated with fare charges. On the other hand, Bus Attendant's Vocational Licence (BAVL) allows you to work as a bus attendant on a school bus in Singapore.

A Digital LTA Vocational Licence (Digital LTA VL) will be issued on the Singpass app after completing your vocational licence course/test, replacing the need for a physical card. If you still wish to own a physical card, you can apply for one on GoBusiness only after you have been issued with a Digital LTA VL.

Please refer to our OneMotoring website for more details.

Note: For Singapore Citizen/Singapore Permanent Resident, your licence application/renewal will require up-to-date MediSave contributions - either paid in full or have an active GIRO arrangement with CPF Board.

To check your MediSave payment status or make payment arrangements for any outstanding MediSave payable, please visit the Self-employment dashboard, which you can access via cpf.gov.sg/MydashboardsFAQ (Self-employment). Find out more about growing your CPF savings as a self-employed person at cpf.gov.sg/selfemployedmatters.
