In Manitoba, there are six classes of driver’s licences to cover all vehicles permitted on our roads. Each class has its own requirements – see testing requirement for a passenger vehicle, a professional vehicle, or a motorcycle.
You must take a driver test for the class of vehicle you wish to drive if you:
- Have never been licensed for that class of vehicle.
- Have not held a Manitoba licence within the past four years.
- Hold a licence from outside of Canada, the United States or other jurisdictions whose licences are not exchangeable.
You may be required to be re-tested if you:
- Have been involved in traffic collisions or convictions.
- Have had your licence suspended.
- Have a medical condition that may affect your ability to drive safely.
Please note: Driver testing and licensing services are available to Manitoba residents only. Proof of Manitoba residency is required.
