About the Tunisia Category D Exam

Category D covers passenger vehicles with more than 8 seats besides the driver's, with a trailer of up to 750 kg, and also entitles the holder to Category G (taxis, louage and rural transport cars). Candidates must be 21, hold Category B with the 2-year stage period completed, and present a certificate from an occupational doctor; they pass a 35-question ATTT theory test and bus road and manoeuvres tests at one appointment. This bank is an independent English-language MCQ study adaptation of the knowledge behind those tests, not an official translation or a simulation of them.

Exam sponsor: Agence Technique des Transports Terrestres (ATTT) — Ministère du Transport. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Assessment

Three tests: a computer-based theory test (Arabic or French, about 30 minutes), then a road test and a manoeuvres test in a bus at the same appointment. The ATTT's Category D manoeuvre is reversing with a change of lane; Annexe 1 also lists stopping safely for passengers to board and alight (7.2.4) and checks of doors, emergency exits, first aid and extinguishers (7.1.8). A candidate who fails either practical test retakes both; on success the examiner issues a provisional licence.

Tunisia Category D: Suggested Study Strategy

1Learn the D-only content of Annexe 1: passengers' comfort and safety, carrying children, pre-departure checks, and stopping safely for boarding and alighting.
2Use the Tunisian driving-hour rules of Décret n° 2000-145 for interurban and tourist coaches, not foreign rules: 9 hours a day and 45 minutes after 4½ hours.
3Know the coach speed limits by weight (10,000 kg threshold) and that bus and coach drivers must have zero alcohol.
4Practise the emergency sequence: stop safely, engine off, open the doors, evacuate behind the barrier, call 198 (fire) or 190 (SAMU).
