1Under Ordinance No. 41, which Bulgarian document carries EU Code 95 after a driver passes initial professional qualification?

A.The category B driving licence only

B.The transport-manager certificate for ръководител на транспортна дейност

C.A periodic 35-hour course attendance sheet

D.The driver qualification card (карта за квалификация на водача)

Explanation: Ordinance No. 41 Art. 2 provides that the minister issues the driver qualification card (карта за квалификация на водача) to a person who holds a certificate of professional competence proving initial qualification or periodic training. Appendix 1 prints Union code 95 on the card next to the C and D categories. A B licence, a transport-manager CPC, or a course sheet does not itself carry Code 95.

2How many parts does the Ordinance No. 41 initial-qualification exam have?

A.One practical driving test only

B.Three papers: theory, yard skills, and a medical viva

C.Two theoretical parts

D.Four modules matching the 280-hour course

Explanation: Art. 23(1) states that the exam for initial qualification consists of two parts. Both are theoretical: a mixed multiple-choice and open-question paper, then case studies. There is no Ordinance 41 practical driving test as the assessed exam, and the course modules are training, not extra exam papers.

3What is in part 1 of the Ordinance No. 41 initial-qualification exam, and how long is it?

A.60 multiple-choice items plus 20 open questions, 120 minutes in total

B.100 computer multiple-choice items, 80 minutes

C.40 case-study points only, 40 minutes

D.35 hours of classroom attendance with no written paper

Explanation: Art. 23(2) sets part 1 as a test of 60 multiple-choice items plus a test of 20 open questions with written answers. Each candidate receives individually numbered papers. Candidates have 120 minutes in total for those two tests. The 35-hour figure is periodic training, not part 1.

4What score on part 1 of the Ordinance No. 41 exam is required before the sitting as a whole can be passed?

A.Exactly 50 of 60 multiple-choice items, with open questions unmarked

B.A combined 70% across all 80 part-1 items

C.More than 50 of 60 multiple-choice items and 15 of the 20 open questions

D.32 of 40 case-study points only

Explanation: Art. 23(4) requires a correct answer on more than 50 of the 60 multiple-choice items and on 15 of the 20 open questions in part 1, plus at least 60% of the case-study points in part 2. Scoring exactly 50 multiple-choice items is not enough, because the ordinance says more than 50.

5How is part 2 of the Ordinance No. 41 initial-qualification exam structured?

A.Eight oral questions before a ministry panel

B.One 280-hour logbook review

C.Two case studies of at least four questions each, 40 points maximum, 120 minutes

D.A 35-hour simulator assessment

Explanation: Art. 23(3) sets part 2 as two case studies (казуси), each with at least four questions. The maximum score from all cases is 40 points, and candidates have 120 minutes. Cases are individual to the candidate sitting that day.

6Part 2 of the Ordinance No. 41 exam is marked out of 40 case-study points. What is the minimum score that meets the 60% pass rule?

A.20 points

B.32 points

C.36 points

D.24 points

Explanation: Art. 23(3) sets the maximum for all case studies at 40 points, and Art. 23(4) requires not less than 60% of the points available for correct case-study answers. Sixty percent of 40 is 24 points, so 24 is the minimum that satisfies the rule. Anything below that fails part 2 even if part 1 was passed.

7When may a candidate sit part 2 of the Ordinance No. 41 initial-qualification exam?

A.On the same day as part 1, even if part 1 has not yet been passed

B.Only after five years of professional driving

C.Only after receiving a positive mark on part 1

D.Only at the IAAA Sofia headquarters, never at a training centre

Explanation: Art. 25(1) admits to part 2 only candidates who obtained a positive mark on part 1. Art. 23(5) then lets a candidate who passed part 1 but failed part 2 retake only part 2. The exam is sat at the approved training centre before a commission, not only in Sofia.

8How does Bulgaria's Ordinance No. 41 initial-qualification exam differ from Ordinance No. 38 category C or D licence theory?

A.They are the same paper; Code 95 is stamped automatically after any C or D theory pass

B.Ordinance 41 replaces the need to hold a C or D licence

C.Ordinance 38 is only for transport managers

D.Ordinance 38 is the C/D licence theory test; Ordinance 41 is the separate two-part professional-qualification exam for the driver qualification card

Explanation: Licence theory for C and D is a different legal track (Ordinance No. 38). Ordinance No. 41 is the initial professional qualification that leads to the driver qualification card and Code 95. Art. 16 even allows the 280-hour or 140-hour course before or after the candidate obtains the relevant driving entitlement. The two papers are not interchangeable.

9A driver already holds a Bulgarian driver qualification card and is due to refresh it. Which statement about periodic training is correct?

A.Periodic training is 35 hours every 5 years and does not use the Art. 23 two-part exam

B.Periodic training is another 280-hour course plus the same 60-plus-20 exam

C.Periodic training is optional if the driver passed part 1 with more than 50 multiple-choice items

D.Periodic training is the transport-manager CPC on IAAA page /bg/704

Explanation: Art. 18(1) and (4) require periodic training every five years, lasting 35 hours, including at least 5 hours of driving. The two-part Art. 23 exam is for initial qualification. Periodic training updates knowledge on road safety, occupational health and safety, and fuel-related environmental impact, then a new certificate of professional competence is issued.

10A candidate searching IAAA pages sees both 'карта за квалификация на водача' and 'ръководител на транспортна дейност'. Which exam is Ordinance No. 41 initial qualification?

A.The transport-manager CPC that authorises a person to run a haulage or passenger undertaking

B.Any university logistics degree that mentions Directive 2003/59/EC

C.The periodic 7-hour classroom blocks with no certificate

D.The driver Code 95 initial-qualification exam sat at an approved training centre after the 280-hour or 140-hour driver course

Explanation: Ordinance No. 41 is the driver initial-qualification path: approved course, then the Art. 23 two-part theoretical exam before a centre commission, then the driver qualification card with Code 95. The transport-manager qualification (ръководител на транспортна дейност) is a separate IAAA competence for running an undertaking, not this driver exam.

Bulgaria Driver CPC Study Tips from Top Performers

1Learn the two-part structure first: you must pass part 1 before part 2, and failed parts are retaken separately.

2Do not confuse this with Ordinance No. 38 C/D licence theory — Code 95 is a longer mixed paper.

3Drill Regulation 561/2006 driving-time and tachograph rules; they sit in Appendix 3a Theme 2.

4Practice load-distribution and passenger-comfort decisions for C versus D vehicles; Theme 1 splits those objectives.

5Use this MCQ bank for knowledge; still practise written answers and case studies because the official part 1 open questions and part 2 cases are not four-option items.
