About the Nevada CDL exam
The Nevada CDL exam is administered by the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles. Like every state, Nevada adopts the federal standards as a baseline and adds state-specific requirements, fees, and procedures.
- Exam / licence fee: approximately $41.25.
- Skills testing: Nevada DMV CDL testing locations in Las Vegas, Reno, and Henderson.
- Nevada requires CDL applicants to schedule skills tests at specific CDL-only testing appointments, separate from regular DMV appointments.
