Working as a delivery driver in France
Search for chauffeur-livreur, livreur, chauffeur-livreur VL (light vehicle) or PL (heavy goods), and conducteur-livreur messagerie for parcel carriers. Van rounds under 3.5 tonnes need only licence B. Heavier delivery trucks require licence C1 or C plus the FIMO goods qualification, renewed by the FCO every five years. Many parcel rounds are run by subcontractors of the big carriers, and interim agencies recruit heavily before the end-of-year peak. Setting up your own light transport business requires a specific professional capacity certificate for light goods transport and registration with the regional transport authority.
