    How long does it take to add tanker and hazmat on your license? Can you do it when you get your initial CDL?

    Yes & no!

    You can do all the tests. Tanker will show up automatically when you pass. But for the hazmat, you have to have a background check done. As long as you have a terroristic background, you should be OK & given the hazmat.

    The endorsement cost is different in each state. Your may only be $5. His may be $50.

    In most states you can take the tanker test and have the endorsement on your permit or on your license immediately. In most states hazmat test can be taken at the same time, but the background check can take from a couple of weeks to a couple of months.

    Best regards
