A Professional Driving Permit (PDP) is a licence that authorises the holder to drive a certain category of vehicle for reward. It is issued in addition to a Code 10 licence. The main difference between a Code 10 licence and a PDP is that a PDP licence holder may be employed as a driver, while a Code 10 licence holder may not. The cost of a PDP licence is N$250.
