Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Any provider of transport services on a commercial vehicle with an all up weight of 10,000 kg or more.
A carrier license is a business licence, not a driving licence. It is required from anyone who provides transport services with a heavy commercial vehicle whose all up weight is 10,000 kg or more. The duty does not apply to every commercial vehicle as such, and it has nothing to do with owning passenger vehicles, which have separate rules.
