Is an operating license required for aerial work vehicles?

[Correia]

Aerial work vehicles require an operating license because they are classified as special vehicles, not motor vehicles. The operator must obtain a special vehicle operating license from the local labor or agricultural machinery department. However, there is currently no nationally unified certification for a "work permit". More details are as follows: The driver of an aerial work vehicle must hold a large passenger vehicle driving license, specifically an A1 license, which permits driving buses with a capacity of more than 20 passengers or passenger vehicles with a body length exceeding 6 meters. Other license types include A3 (city buses), B1 (medium-sized buses), B2 (large trucks), C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled vehicles), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery).
