Texas Form CDL-7 Instructions

A CDL-7 Form must be provided to the Department of Public Safety (DPS) specifying the type of commercial vehicle you are planning to drive, stating that you will only operate commercially in 1 of 4 categories. This process is called self-certification.

After receiving your CDL-7 through the DPS, the State Driver Licensing Agencies will add your CDL-7 status and your ME information to your CDL record. Often your ME certificate is also referred to as a medical card. Generally, it has to be renewed every two years. None of the federal standards for the physical qualifications of SDL drivers have changed.

To complete the CDL-7 Form, determine what kind of commerce you will be operating in - interstate or intrastate. Are you excepted or non-excepted from any State and Federal requirements? Select one of the following categories that apply to you:

Provide general information in the top section of the form. Include your CDL number and SSN. Select the correct category of commercial transportation. Expired Medical Variance (waiver for certain medical conditions) or DOT ME Certificates must be renewed and submitted to the DPS.
