Since 23.05.2021, professional drivers must provide proof of their basic qualification or further training through a Driver Qualification Card (DQC). The entry of the code number 95 is based on social regulations in freight transport according to the Professional Driver Qualification Act (BKrFQG).
Since 23.05.2021, the proven basic qualification and completed further training are exclusively documented through the Driver Qualification Card. This is a separate card that must be applied for separately.
On the back of the Driver Qualification Card, the code number 95 is recorded along with the expiry date of the proven basic qualification or further training. The validity is a maximum of five years.
Example:
If the proven qualification is valid until 25.05.2026, the entry on the Driver Qualification Card reads: 95 (25.05.26)
Since the Driver Qualification Card also contains the driving license number, it is recommended to present the further training certificates as part of the renewal of temporary driving license classes.
