Numerous Brazilians Should Pay Attention to Excellent News Regarding the CNH Popular Program, Which Provides Free Documentation
Did you know that obtaining a CNH in Brazil can cost a small fortune? Indeed, prices vary from R$2,100 to R$3,800, depending on the city and category. And that’s not all; the process is lengthy, taking 3 to 5 months. But hold on, there’s good news: the end of the CNH fee is making waves, and you need to hurry to secure yours!
What Is the End of the CNH Fee?
This Wednesday, the 7th, the project from the National Transport Learning Service (SENAT) and the Transport Social Service (SEST) that offers free CNH to thousands of Brazilians garnered attention. This project, called the CNH Popular program, is aimed at low-income individuals who want to obtain their first license in categories A (motorcycle) and B (car).
The idea emerged in 2011 and was embraced by the Federal Government and various state Detrans. It’s important to keep an eye on the rules in your state, as not all offer the benefit. To find out if you can participate, visit the website of your state’s Detran.

Harley-Davidson created an entry-level motorcycle that seems impossible for those who only know the brand’s big bikes: the X440 uses a 440 cc single-cylinder engine, delivers 27 hp, 38 Nm, a declared fuel consumption of 35 km/l, and showcases a small, rational, and much more accessible Harley in India.

The labor shortage has changed its face in Brazil: companies hire 80% more, but workers stay only 6.8 months in the job, the service market becomes a “revolving door,” and businesses spend increasingly more to train teams that soon leave.
And Who Is Being Benefited?
This year, the State Department of Traffic of Ceará (Detran-CE) announced new dates and cities covered by the CNH Popular program. The cities of Maracanaú, Limoeiro do Norte, and Itapipoca were the lucky ones this time. If you have been approved, you need to schedule your service at the driving school according to the available day and time. Attention: the maximum time to complete the process is 12 months.
In Ceará, 25,000 citizens have already benefited from the CNH Popular program, with 5,000 driver’s licenses issued just for Fortaleza and the other 20,000 distributed among the remaining 183 municipalities.
How Does the Process Work?
For those who want to take advantage of the end of the CNH fee, it is important to know the stages of the driver training process, according to resolution No. 789/2020 from Contran:
- Physical and mental aptitude exam with psychological assessment;
- Technical-theoretical course;
- Theoretical-technical test;
- Practical vehicle driving course;
- Practical vehicle driving test.
Each stage must be strictly completed within the established deadlines. If you miss an stage, you may be disqualified and lose the benefit. So, stay alert!
The end of the CNH fee is excellent news for thousands of Brazilians who dream of driving but cannot afford to pay for the document. With the CNH Popular program, this dream becomes possible. So, if you fit the criteria, don’t waste time and rush to secure your free CNH!
