Does an Operators Licence Expire?

Operator’s License Renewal and Responsibilities

You need an operator’s license to transport goods or people commercially. The Western Cape Department of Transport can assist with public operator license applications. Operator licenses allow operating vehicles like trucks, vans, or buses. An interim license lasts until revoked or the business changes hands. Renewing demonstrates safe, responsible operating. Some jurisdictions issue 1-5 year licenses.

UK Licence for the Community

UK Licences for the Community are valid until the 5-yearly renewal date of your operator’s licence. There’s no fee if you have a standard international vehicle operator licence. You can only use licences issued to you. The licence includes an office copy you must keep at your main office for inspection by agencies. It also includes certified copies for each vehicle authorized by your licence. Certified copies are not vehicle specific. The UK Licence allows limited cabotage and cross-trade in the EU. There are no limits on available licences.

Community License and Its Functionality

The community license allows EU transport. It is an administrative decision allowing international road transport of goods and passengers. The number of entries in the license each time corresponds to the number of vehicles in the fleet.

Community License Overview

The community license is a permit for the commercial transport of goods between countries. Interestingly, it is not issued to the transport company, nor to the driver, but for each vehicle. The change in the regulations was announced in 2020 through Regulation 2020/1055. However, its introduction in Poland led to significant chaos.

Salesforce Community Licensing

A community license works like a standard Salesforce internal license. External users with a member-based license can access a community multiple times but do not have access to the internal organization. Salesforce Communities pricing:

  • Customer Community: $2 per login or $5 per member/month.
  • Customer Community Plus: $6 per login or $15 per member/month.
