Obtaining a free National Driver's License (CNH) is now a reality for many Brazilians. More than 60,000 people have already been approved to receive their CNH at no cost, thanks to the CNH Social program. This program, focused on low-income individuals, represents a significant effort by the Government to provide mobility and income-generating opportunities.
Registration for the program is online, facilitating access to the licensing process and eliminating bureaucratic barriers. For residents of several regions, such as the state of Pará, the program offers thousands of vacancies, guaranteeing the obtaining of a CNH free of charge.

Requirements and application process
To qualify for the free driver's license program, candidates must meet certain criteria. These include being over 18 years old, proving an income of up to two minimum wages, being unemployed for more than 12 months, being a public school student with excellent academic performance, among others.
The program covers the first license, change and addition of category, covering all processes, including medical and practical exams, without the need to pay fees. Therefore, registrations are through the official website of DMV of each participating state.
Availability of the free CNH program
Although the free CNH program has already been regulated by the Federal Government, adherence to this initiative varies from state to state. Thus, currently, several states offer the benefit, including Acre, Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul, Distrito Federal, Espírito Santo, São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Rio Grande do Norte, among others.
It is important to check the latest information on your state's DMV website for details on registration and specific criteria. As such, the free driver's license continues to be a valuable initiative, providing access to mobility and income-generating opportunities for those who need it most.
