Truck driver jobs in Germany (CE licence)

Companies in Germany are currently looking for professional drivers with a category CE licence, especially in long-haul transport and haulage. Do you drive trucks and want to work in Germany? Then register with us. Registration is free of charge for you.

What belongs in your profile

  • Licence categories with issuing country and validity
  • Driver qualification card or code 95
  • Driver card for the digital tachograph
  • Years in the job and vehicle types, such as articulated or drawbar trucks
  • Languages, availability and willingness to relocate

Are you an EU citizen with an EU driving licence and code 95? Then the route is shorter: you do not need a visa, and your licence and code 95 are usually valid in Germany as well.

Was your licence issued outside the EU? We check with you which route applies to your licence.
