Please find below some useful info on how to become a limo chauffeur…
In order to obtain a limousine driver’s licence, your first step is to obtain your Class 4 (or greater) driver’s licence from any registry in Alberta.
The next step is doing the Defensive Driving course. AMA offers this course for $99 on their website if registering online.
The last step is to see the City of Calgary Taxi & Livery Commission. 2116 27 Ave NE Calgary 403-648-6300
To obtain your limousine licence, you must first pass a written exam. The cost of the exam is $54. If you fail (less than 80%), they give you 2 more chances to write at $24 per try. The study guide is available at the Taxi & Livery Commission offices.
Once you have passed the written test, they then do a police clearance, $41 and your badge is $135 annually on your birthday.
The above pricing for the Taxi & Livery Commission is for 2016.
If you already have your taxi licence, the only cost to you is the $135 for your limousine badge to have both licences. Both will renew annually & only one police check is required annually.
Once you have completed the previous three steps, it is now time to put your new licence to work!

I hired AM/Pm Limo for my son's wedding this last weekend. I booked 3 separate trips. The first arrived 20 min early and notified me that he was there and waited till the couple was ready. The second 2 arrived right on time. The price was very good. I was surprised. I thought it would cost a lot."
