Changes to accepted identification
Bank cards, Norwegian Armed Forces ID cards and Norwegian seafarers’ discharge books will no longer be accepted at driver and vehicle licensing offices. This is shown as a future rule and does not change current answers before it takes effect.
Open the primary source ↗Driving and rest-time rules for international goods transport
The Driver CPC and heavy-vehicle material covers international carriage of goods and cabotage where the maximum authorised mass of the vehicle combination, including any trailer, exceeds 2.5 tonnes.
Open the primary source ↗Corresponding rules for domestic transport
The domestic extension is recorded as a future rule and must not be used as a current answer before it takes effect.
Open the primary source ↗Which CPC route do you need?
Choose an overview of the requirements, preparation for your transport type, or renewal of existing competence.
Establish the route you need
You may need initial qualification, competence upgrading or periodic training. Your existing licence and CPC determine the route. A general online course alone does not fulfil mandatory professional driver education.
Use a transport job as the framework
Start with an example job: vehicle, load, route and delivery time. Decide what must be checked before departure and what might change the plan. Load securing, scheduling and driver responsibility become easier to understand in a concrete context.
Topics to work through carefully
- Safe and economical driving with a load.
- Drivers’ hours, breaks, rest periods, documentation and planning.
- Load distribution, securing loads and pre-departure checks.
- Health, working conditions and managing unexpected incidents.
The test and online preparation
The full goods Driver CPC theory test has 50 questions, 120 minutes and requires at least 42 correct answers. Competence upgrading from passenger to goods transport has a different test format. Confirm the correct official test with Statens vegvesen.
Kurskompis has separate goods and passenger learning pathways. Choose goods for the YSKFG subject material and mock exam. The course supplements approved training; it is not approved initial education and does not provide a dedicated competence-upgrading mock exam.
What the theory course includes
706 unique subject questions, all with explanations, plus 36 lessons. Study in Norwegian or English on your phone or computer. Access costs NOK 599 for 6 months (183 days), with no automatic renewal.
- A learning plan helps you choose your next topic.
- Topic practice and situation exercises connect theory with decisions.
- An error bank, spaced review and mock tests show what to revisit.
- Progress is saved to your account and follows you across devices.
Choose the goods-transport or passenger-transport pathway. Some questions are shared; the total above counts each unique question once. Practice covers full CPC tests, not separate extension tests. It does not renew code 95 or replace approved initial or periodic training.
Frequently asked questions
Is goods CPC the same as an operator licence?
No. YSK concerns the driver's competence. An operator licence concerns the transport business's right to operate.
Does this online course give me Code 95?
No. Online practice at Kurskompis does not issue Code 95.
