For Individual Users only

This licence is only for individuals with no Unique Entity Number (UEN).

Application Details

Taxi Driver’s Vocational Licence (TDVL) holders are allowed to provide chauffeured services using either a taxi or a private hire car. On the other hand, Private Hire Car Driver’s Vocational Licence (PDVL) holders are allowed to provide chauffeured services using a private hire car only.

A Digital LTA Vocational Licence (Digital LTA VL) will be issued on the Singpass app after completing your vocational licence 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: Only Singapore citizens are eligible to apply for a TDVL/PDVL. Non-Singaporean applications will NOT be accepted.
