To apply for a Utah CDL, you must be at least 18 years old, be a resident of Utah (you might need to bring proof of residency), and have one year of driving experience. When applying for a new CDL, bring the following documents with you:

    Your current Utah driver license
  • Your Social Security card (metal cards are not acceptable)
  • Your valid DOT medical card or "Long Form"
  • If you took the skills test from a third-party tester, bring your Certificate of Driver Competency (this means you can take your test before you appear to apply for your license. You can also arrange to take this test at the driver license field office when you apply)
  • Application form (you can fill this out at the driver license field office)
  • Required application/testing fees

Fees vary based on the number of endorsements you are seeking, as each endorsement requires an additional test. These fees include two attempts for each test:

    General Knowledge test, including Combination Vehicles test and Air Brakes test, if required (written): $40
  • Skills tests (driving): $60
  • $25 intrastate medical fee
