State of Iowa CDL Requirements

The state of Iowa requires that you be at least 18 years of age to obtain a CDL. You are required to provide proof of your full name and date of birth. A social security card will be needed as well. Individuals applying for a CDL will also be subjected to a vision screening and DOT medical examination. Before an applicant can take a test to obtain their CDL they must first complete the knowledge tests that are directly related to the type of CDL endorsement the applicant wishes to receive. Listed below are the different knowledge tests.

  • General Knowledge for any CDL Combination Vehicle for Class A
  • Air Brake
  • Passenger
  • School Bus
  • Doubles/Triples
  • HazMat
  • Tanker
  • Iowa Operator (if applicable)

After the CDL applicant obtains the proper permits they can then schedule a Skills Test. The test is conducted in three separate phases. The pre-trip safety inspection is the first step, followed by basic skills maneuvers, and finally a driving test (on public roads with an examiner).
