Alaska CDL Info | Alaska CDL Requirements

A commercial driver license (CDL) is required for a resident of Alaska who is driving a vehicle intrastate (19 & above) or interstate (21 & above) with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 26,001 pounds or more. If you will be driving a vehicle designed to carry 16 or more passengers, or transporting hazardous materials, regardless of the GVWR, a CDL is required. A commercial driver may have only one license and that license must be issued by their home state. Those exempted from the commercial driver licensing requirements include drivers of recreational, military and emergency vehicles. Farm vehicles are exempt if controlled and operated by a farmer, used to transport agricultural products or machinery to and from a farm, not used in for-hire or contract carrier operations, and if driven no further than 150 miles from the farm.

An instruction permit for specified commercial type or class of motor vehicle is valid for a period not to exceed 180 days. A commercial instruction permit may be renewed one time for a period of 180 days.

Your social security number is required to obtain a CDL. The commercial driver license fee is $100.00. There is a $25.00 non-refundable fee for those requiring a road test. You must hold a CDL permit for at minimum of 14 days before taking a CDL skills test.

To transfer a CDL from another state to Alaska, you must:
  • Complete an Application for Commercial Driver License (Form 415) and Commercial Driver Medical & Self Certification Verification (Form 413).
  • Provide proof of the following: Date of birth, legal name, social security number and your physical address IN ALASKA.
  • Surrender your valid license from another state. (Cannot be expired for over 1 year.)
  • Pass the written "Rules of the Road" test to convert to an Alaska license. (20 questions)
  • Pass the "Hazardous Materials" test if you have that endorsement and wish to keep it.
Effective January 31, 2005, you are required to pass a background check in order to obtain or retain a hazardous materials endorsement.
  • Pass any knowledge tests for endorsements that you wish to add to your license and do not have on your current license. Some endorsements require a road test.
  • Pass a vision test.
  • Pay the $100.00 fee for an ALASKA CDL.
Note: If your CDL from another state has been expired over one year, you must pass ALL written tests that apply to the type of license you wish to obtain. A road test is required if the license has been expired over five years.
