Obtain your VTC card
Pass the VTC Exam
Before you can get your VTC card, you will have to pass a theoretical test and a practical test.
The candidate passes the VTC theory test if he obtains a minimum of 10/20 without an eliminatory mark in any test. He is then eligible for the VTC practical test, a professional driving test that the candidate must pass within 12 months (he has 3 attempts, after which his theoretical test is also invalidated) by obtaining a minimum of 12/20. The accepted candidate can then begin the process of applying for a VTC professional card, creating a business, etc.
The VTC driver is then required to renew his professional VTC card every 5 years by following a compulsory 14-hour VTC training course, called “continuing education”. The objective is for him to update his knowledge in transport law, road safety and to be kept informed of developments in the economic and technological environment.
Obtain your VTC card
The VTC card (“transport car with driver”) in itself costs around 60 euros, payment being made online on the prefecture’s website. This is the price to be paid when applying for the card, that is to say after having received the certificate of success in the VTC driver exam.
The VTC card is compulsory to be able to work. The card must be placed on the windshield of the vehicle and be visible from the outside. It must be renewed every 5 years, the fact of holding an invalid VTC card being sanctioned with a fine of 1500 euros.
Register in the VTC register :
Once you have obtained your VTC card, you must register in the register of VTC operators.
Submit a registration request to the prefecture of your department. You will need to provide a series of documents, such as your driver’s license, your certificate of professional competence, a certificate of civil liability insurance, a copy of your vehicle registration document, etc.
Once your registration request has been validated, you will be registered in the register of VTC drivers and can begin to exercise your professional activity.
Insurances
Professional insurance: RC Pro
To be able to have the right to exercise your activity legally as well as to be covered in the event of an accident with customers on board your vehicle, you must take out professional insurance commonly called “RC Pro”.
Passenger vehicle insurance :
In addition to your RC Pro, you must take out specific personal transport insurance for the vehicle(s) you will use as part of your activity. Very often, you can take out this insurance at the same time as your RC Pro.
