After Brexit, Driver CPC will still be required to drive professionally in the UK. Your Driver CPC periodic training must be completed by your deadline.

You do not need to do anything else if you’re a UK driver working for a UK company.

​

You will still be able to drive to or through EU countries with your UK Driver CPC qualification for all international journeys that UK companies are allowed to make after a no-deal Brexit.

For example, your UK Driver CPC will be valid for a journey from the UK to Switzerland using an ECMT international road haulage permit after Brexit.

​

The UK will still recognise Driver CPC qualifications from EU countries after Brexit.

The EU will not recognise UK Driver CPC qualifications if there’s a no-deal Brexit for:

• UK drivers working for UK companies from 1 January 2020

• UK drivers working for EU companies from 31 October 2019

​

Working for an EU Company

If you work for an EU company or want to work for one you should consider changing your UK Driver CPC qualification for an EU one. This will ensure you can still work for both UK and EU companies in the case of a no-deal Brexit.
