Transferring CDL license from state to state

you will likely have to test for your endorsements like HazMat.

You'd be better off calling the respective states.

 

I recently moved from FL to SC (6mos ago) just paid fee and was issued SC CDL. BUT, I was recently told that they just passed new regs that you have to re-test (paper) to obtain the lic.
I would deff call the state you are heading to and confirm what they do.

 

I just transferred from CT to FL and had no problem. All endorsements were transferred EXCEPT Hazmat. Each state requires that you retest for Hazmat in there state due to different state regulations.

 

Sc to nc was quite simple.

 

each state is different, heard california actually makes you drive test again.

 

School that I went to in CT told us that it depends on where you got your license (What state) and what level schooling you took. Some states are more in depth on there schooling and have higher licensing requirements then other. If you took the quickie course in one state and went to another state with higher requirements to license then you will have to retest. I came from CT witch has one of the highest and hardest testing in the U.S. I was told that the only place that I would have to retest would be in Mass. because of the high testing and classroom requirements to qualify for a CT CDL.

 

Anyone move to Texas and if so, what were the requirements to obtain a Texas CDL? To transfer to a Texas CDL I mean.
