The CNH Social Program will open more than 7 vacancies in 2025. Aimed at low-income people, it offers free licensing for motorcycles, cars and transport vehicles.
Obtaining a driver's license is the dream of many Brazilians, but for some, the high cost of the process can make this desire unattainable.
However, an initiative promises to change this reality once again in 2025.
A social program that has already benefited thousands of people will return with even more opportunities.

CNH Social Program will continue in 2025
O State Traffic Department (Detran), in partnership with the State Government, confirmed the continuity of the CNH Social Program in the next year.
According to Detran-ES, the initiative offers free access to the license and is considered strategic for the State.
The forecast is that more than 7 thousand vacancies will be made available, repeating the pattern of previous years.
Over the last two years, the initiative has benefited thousands of people from Espírito Santo, consolidating itself as one of the state government's main social projects.
According to the newspaper New Time, registrations will be open in the first months of 2025, with a second stage scheduled for the second half of the year.
However, specific details — such as dates, requirements and steps — will be disclosed in the official notice.
Who can participate?
Although the rules for 2025 have not yet been published, previous editions give a good idea of the profile of eligible candidates.
The program is aimed at low-income people who are enrolled in social programs. Check out the main categories covered:
- First qualification: to drive motorcycles (category A) or cars (category B);
- Category addition: to include new categories in the existing CNH;
- Category change: for example, for passenger transport (category D) or large vehicles, such as trucks and trailers (category E).
In 2025, the criteria are expected to continue to prioritize the inclusion of vulnerable populations, such as beneficiaries of Bolsa Família or other federal programs.
These criteria aim to ensure that vacancies are directed to the people who need them most.
The impact of the CNH Social program
In recent years, the initiative has transformed the lives of thousands of people from Espírito Santo.
The program not only facilitates access to mobility, but also expands possibilities for entering the job market.
Professionals such as drivers, delivery people and service providers are examples of beneficiaries who were able to improve their financial condition and quality of life.
According to experts, the program also generates a positive impact on the local economy, encouraging the development of autonomous activities and promoting safer traffic.
Studies show that regularizing drivers contributes to reducing accidents, benefiting society as a whole.
How to apply?
Registrations will be made exclusively through the official Detran-ES website (https://detran.es.gov.br/), on dates to be specified in the notice.
After the registration period, the final list of selected candidates will also be published on the official portal.
In previous editions, the process involved filling in personal data and proving socioeconomic requirements, in addition to submitting documents such as ID, CPF and proof of registration in social programs.
Therefore, it is essential to keep the documentation up to date.
Stay tuned for the notice
If you dream of getting your driver's license for free, be sure to follow the Detran-ES website and the organization's social networks.
The publication of the notice is the definitive step to check dates, number of vacancies and other rules.
Prepare in advance, organize your documents and keep an eye on the dates so you don't miss this opportunity.
In the meantime, take the opportunity to learn about the experiences of those who have participated in previous editions. Many report that the program was a turning point in their lives, opening doors both in the job market and in their personal lives.
And you, do you think this initiative could be expanded to other states? Leave your opinion in the comments!
Yes, I would really like to get my license but the situation doesn't allow it! It could be expanded to other states!
I look forward to this initiative being here in Rio de Janeiro too.
It would be great if this opportunity to get a driver's license were available to all of Brazil, including Pará. There are many people who need it and cannot afford to pay for a license. For example, I can't afford it, because what I earn is to pay for the maintenance of where I live, I pay for electricity, I pay for rent, and my salary practically goes to almost everything. So it's an opportunity for us. If it came to the city of Santarém, Pará, it would be so good and it would at least give priority to these people who are single. I even have to support everything, from studying to food. I would appreciate it if I had this opportunity to have my driver's license. I would feel very happy to be able to take my children to school. So think carefully about everything I said, it makes people HAPPY. THANK YOU.
