Applying for a provisional bus licence
When you apply, you’ll need to choose what category of provisional licence you’re applying for.
The category of provisional licence you need depends on the type of vehicle you want to drive and the weight of the trailer you can tow with it.
How to apply
To apply, order forms D2 and D4 from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA).
Filling in form D4
The D4 form has to be filled in by a doctor. This could be either:
- your GP - but an optician might need to fill in the section about your eyesight
- a private firm specialising in drivers’ medical exams
Your doctor, optician or a private firm can charge you.
Filling in form D2
Depending on which provisional licence category you choose in form D2, you may get additional provisional entitlements to the one you apply for.
Order the forms through the Government Website
Send the forms
Send both forms and your photocard driving licence to DVLA. There’s no application fee.
If you have a paper driving licence you must include a passport-style colour photo and original identity documents.

How long it takes
You should get your driving licence within 3 weeks of DVLA getting your application. It can take longer if your health or personal details need to be checked.
Training Reviews
Thank you for getting me through my trailer training and taking me to a first time pass. I am absolutely thrilled. Anyone considering getting a towing licence should definitely use this company. They are very patient and understanding and really know their stuff! The van and trailer are a great set up and good to tow. They happily adapted my training to suit my needs and help me worked through all the areas needed to pass. Highly recommended.
Thank you much Richard and Kay! - Meg Atkinson
