강사의 조언
“CONTRAN Resolution 1.020 removes the requirement to enroll at a driving school. Candidates can complete the theoretical course for free through the CNH do Brasil app, which previously required 45 hours of in-person classes. The cost of obtaining a CNH drops from around R$3,000 to R$700-800.”

강사의 조언
“The mandatory practical training has been drastically reduced from 25 hours to just 2 hours. While this makes the CNH more accessible, most candidates will still benefit from additional practice. The practical exam standards remain the same.”
Automatic CNH Renewal for Clean Drivers
2026년 1월 1일 시행
In-person renewal required
All drivers had to renew their CNH in person at a DETRAN office with medical and psychological exams
Automatic free renewal via app
Drivers with no infractions in the 12 months before expiration can register with the National Positive Driver Registry (RNPC) for automatic, free renewal via the CNH do Brasil app
공식 출처: SENATRAN RNPC
강사의 조언
“Clean drivers get rewarded: if you have no infractions in the 12 months before your CNH expires, you can renew automatically and for free through the CNH do Brasil app or SENATRAN portal. Register with the RNPC (Registro Nacional Positivo de Condutores) to qualify.”

Re: Enhanced Digital CNH with Biometric Access
강사의 조언
“The digital CNH is now the primary format, with the physical card becoming optional. Police can scan the QR code for instant validation, and the app uses facial recognition for security. Updates to your license status appear in real time.”
