1 - How to Become a Bolt Driver-Partner Within an Existing Fleet
To become a Bolt driver-partner within an existing fleet, access the list of partner fleets and choose one to collaborate with. The fleet will assist you in obtaining all necessary documents and guide you through each step of the process.
Required Documents for Bolt Driver-Partners
To become a Bolt driver-partner, you must provide several documents to ensure you meet all legal and platform requirements. Below is a checklist of what you need.
Travel and Baggage Insurance Details
Travel accident insurance provides financial protection if you are involved in a road accident while driving. It covers medical expenses, bodily injury, and other costs related to an accident. Make sure to review your policy for specific terms and exclusions.
Profile Picture Guidelines
Upload a clear portrait photo with a broad smile and your face fully visible. Avoid wearing sunglasses, hats, or using group photos.
2 - How do you become a Bolt driver-partner with your own LLC/PFA?
If you register as a driver partner with your own company, you must also register on the Bolt fleet portal.
Documents Required to Register with Your Own PFA or SRL
To register your own PFA (Sole Proprietorship), SRL (Limited Liability Company), Individual Enterprise, or Family Enterprise as a Bolt partner fleet, you need to provide several key documents. Choose the business structure that best fits your needs.
Intra-Community VAT Registration (VIES)
After setting up your business, you must obtain an intra-community VAT number. This is required to provide services to the Bolt platform, which is an EU-based legal entity. Even if your business is not VAT-registered, you still need this document to receive payments.
Certificate for Passenger Transport for Hire
This certificate is essential for obtaining the alternative transport authorization. At least one driver in your fleet must hold this certificate. Without it, the Romanian Road Authority (ARR) will not issue the alternative transport authorization.
Alternative Transport Authorization
You need an alternative transport authorization issued by the ARR territorial agency in the city where you want to operate. This authorization is issued to your company and proves you are operating legally.

A Bolt partner fleet is a company that can have multiple drivers working for it. You can start as the only active driver and add other partner drivers to your company in the future as your business grows.
