Work Permit and S Pass holders with a valid foreign driving licence may convert the licence to a Singapore Class 3C/ 3CA driving licence (which allows them to drive Class 3/ 3A motor cars in Singapore) by passing the Basic Theory Test. With effect from 15 September 2025, all Class 3C/ 3CA driving licence holders will be required to pass a road assessment before they can proceed with Class 4/ 4P driving lessons. Those who fail the road assessment won’t be allowed to proceed with Class 4/ 4P driving lessons. Additionally, their Class 3C/ 3CA driving licence will be revoked, and they won’t be allowed to obtain a licence within one year of the revocation date.
Work pass holders holding a Class 3C/ 3CA licence must obtain official employer support before enrolling in the Class 4/ 4P driving course. Employers are required to submit a declaration via FormSG using their CorpPass. Upon successful submission, the Traffic Police will advise the employer on the subsequent steps for registering for the Class 3C/ 3CA Road Assessment.
The road assessment evaluates the participants’ overall competency to drive a Class 3/ 3A motor car in actual traffic conditions. Examiners assess key competencies including basic vehicle control (mirror checks, signalling, speed control, positioning), junction navigation, interaction with other road users, and adherence to traffic rules.
The road assessment operates on a point system where serious mistakes result in immediate failure, while minor errors accumulate points. To pass, candidates must demonstrate smooth, systematic driving and show they can safely handle various road situations and follow traffic rules.
Upon passing the road assessment, participants can enrol for the Class 4/ 4P driving course (depending on the selection in FormSG) at our Service Centre during operating hours. Enrolment can only be done 5 working days after passing the Class 3/ 3CA Road Assessment. The enrolment fee will be waived, but other fees apply.

Once registered, there shall be no refund for cancellation or withdrawal of the assessment. Postponement is not allowed.
Upon enrolment, I consent to the disclosure of my personal particulars, Name, NRIC, Passport or other Identification Number, Telephone Numbers, Email Address and any other information relating to myself to the Centre and to Government Authorities, Land Transport Authority, Traffic Police, Insurance Company and its agent issuing insurance coverage for myself and to any other interested or relevant parties.
If you have any serious traffic offences pending against you, you are advised not to apply for a licence. This is because if you are eventually disqualified by court from holding or obtaining a driving licence, the disqualification could be for all classes of driving licence including any newly acquired licence
