Wyoming CDL Resources

Official resources to check first

Wyoming CDL resources are managed by WYDOT (dot.state.wy.us — official .state.wy.us government domain). Verify current requirements at dot.state.wy.us.

No direct CDL handbook link is listed for Wyoming yet. Visit the Wyoming Department of Transportation — Driver Services website and look for a "CDL Manual," "Commercial Driver Handbook," or similar link.

Before you apply or renew

These steps apply regardless of state. Verify each requirement directly with the Wyoming Department of Transportation — Driver Services before beginning the application process.

• Verify your CDL class (A, B, or C) matches the vehicles you intend to operate.
• Check whether you need endorsements (HazMat, Tanker, Passenger, School Bus, Doubles/Triples) and confirm state testing requirements for each.
• Confirm you hold a valid DOT medical certificate (MCSA-5876) and that it is current before applying or renewing.
• If you are a new CDL applicant, confirm whether ELDT (Entry-Level Driver Training) applies to your situation — see the ELDT overview.
• Gather required documents — identity, residency, and any existing license — before visiting a testing location.
• Confirm current fees and testing appointment availability directly with the Wyoming Department of Transportation — Driver Services.

Medical certificate

CDL holders operating in interstate commerce must carry a current DOT medical certificate issued by a certified medical examiner on the FMCSA National Registry. Wyoming state requirements for submitting or updating medical certification vary — check the Wyoming Department of Transportation — Driver Services website for the current procedure.

ELDT — Entry-Level Driver Training

Federal ELDT requirements apply to new Class A and Class B CDL applicants and to certain endorsements. Training must be completed at a provider listed on the FMCSA Training Provider Registry (TPR). The Wyoming Department of Transportation — Driver Services does not administer ELDT — training is completed at a registered provider before you schedule the skills test.
