    • Based on 2025 VA commercial driver's license manual

    You’re here, so you must be considering adding the Hazardous Materials (Hazmat) endorsement to your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). That’s an excellent way to add marketability and a potential increase in earnings to your career. The Hazmat endorsement permits drivers to transport materials that the U.S. government has deemed hazardous. If you don’t have the endorsement, you are most assuredly ineligible to transport that entire class of cargo! Once endorsed, the materials available for transport range from explosives and certain types of fuel to industrial chemicals, radioactive materials and infectious substances. But know this: the most important objective of this endorsement process is to ensure your safety and protect the people and environment in your driving area.

    The minimum age for the Hazmat endorsement in Virginia is 21. To add this endorsement, you’ll need to pass a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) fingerprinting and background check and the DMV knowledge test. The knowledge test covers federal regulations, substance handling, and a host of other topics. Virginia’s knowledge test is made up of 30 questions and must be passed with a score of at least 80% (24 out of 30 answers must be correct) (Virginia CDL Handbook 2025).

    Let’s get back to the potential income increase available with this endorsement. According to the 2025 Virginia CDL manual, the Hazmat endorsement can elicit higher pay from employers needing that extra skill set! In Virginia, there are multiple industries with cargo transport that require a Hazmat endorsement, including chemical manufacturing (DuPont and BSAF have manufacturing facilities in the state), pharmaceuticals (Merck & Company and Pfizer also have operations here), and petroleum and energy (Eastman Chemical is located in Martinsville). This sounds pretty lucrative, right? Let’s look at how we’ve eased the process for you.

    Our online Virginia DMV Hazmat Endorsement practice tests are strategically designed to avoid all the extraneous information you’ll come across and go straight to the relevant material. Our tests mimic what you will face on the official DMV test. The very first item on your to-do list is to apply for your fingerprints and background check. This response can take weeks so use that time to study with our practice tests. Once you receive the results and feel confidently prepared, you’ll visit the DMV with the necessary documents, pay the fees, and take the test.
