You have to take a test. Only a car license is a straight swap. You swap your car license then apply to take the Class 1 and air test.

Not sure if you missed it, but in response to your last post you were told that most Canadian companies will want a few years Class 1 experience. As it seems from that thread you have only just passed your Class 1, you might need to work in Europe for a few years first.

HTH.

Most companies want a minimum of 2 years experience and the ones that don't, you wouldn't want to be working for anyway.

I have just passed but am working full time class1 told by the company that I will not need 2 yrs as have class 2 experience and by the time I get over I will have at least a years experience the company that are doing all the work for me will get me job interviews as they where the ones that fronted the truckers incentive

I'm confused, told by which 'company', do you mean a trucking company or some third party? Don't know what the truckers incentive is, but do make sure you don't pay any money to anybody to find you a job.

Good luck.
