Renewal of licences

Every professional sector requires specific medical skills, but it is no secret that transport medicine has its own particular safety issues: just think of the risks associated with driving public and private vehicles - buses, trucks and trains - but also with driving vehicles such as scooters, bicycles or electric scooters in city centers (think of couriers and delivery drivers).

The most common risk factors are vibration, posture, exhaust fumes, environmental noise and fatigue due to prolonged driving. The health surveillance protocol for the transport sector also includes an assessment of the risks associated with the use of narcotic or psychotropic substances.

The CAVOK Medical Center carries out all the examinations for the renewal and issue of driving and nautical licences: a service that completes the field of aeromedicine and makes our center the first Italian center for transport medicine.

In detail, it is possible to perform medical examinations for obtaining and renewing the following licences:

  • Category A
  • Category B
  • Category C
  • Category D
  • Category E
  • Nautics

Renewal of firearms licence

Based on specific needs, the type of arms licence is applied for and issued:

  • Personal defence: Permission to carry a weapon outside your home (1 year validity)
  • Use for sporting purposes: allows the weapon to be used within a training center (valid for 5 years).
  • Use for hunting: permits the use of the weapon (hunting rifle) during the authorised periods and in the authorised areas (valid for 5 years).
  • Possession: allows to possess but not transport artistic, antique and rare weapons.

The initial authorisation is almost always issued by the Police Headquarters, with the exception of the arms licence for personal defence, issued directly by the Prefecture.

Since the possession of a weapon is always considered potentially dangerous, the conditions for authorisation must be reviewed periodically.
When the expiry date approaches, the holder of a firearms licence must apply for its renewal in order to prevent the document from expiring.

The CAVOK Center can carry out medical examinations for the renewal of all types of firearms licences.
