WHAT IS A PCO LICENCE?
A Private Hire Driver Licence is called a PCO licence. It stands for Public Carriage Office and is licensed by the Department of Transport for London. You need one to work as a passenger driver in London.
Private hire vehicles are officially defined as “vehicles that can carry up to 8 passengers and are available for hire with a driver”. This includes taxis, minicabs, and limousines.
If you like the idea of working with new people every day, being your own boss and setting your own hours setting your own hours, applying for a PCO licence should be your first step towards a rewarding job as a private hire driver.
