The DVSA has issued new regulations that came into force on Monday 21 April which changed the drivers’ hours rules for PSV operators.
The drivers’ hours guidance has now been updated to reflect these changes.
Please familiarise yourself with the updated guidance and ensure you remain compliant.
What you need to know – a reminder of the changes
You must follow AETR rules on international journeys.

The changes also include:
- an updated list of countries for the EU and non-EU

- replacing any reference to ‘EU law’ with ‘assimilated drivers’ hours rules’
