What are the requirements to become a Mercado Libre delivery driver?

The opportunity to become a delivery driver for Mercado Libre is quite broad, as it falls under the Extra Shipping category.

In this category, independent delivery drivers can deliver orders for Mercado Libre customers within their desired area.

But for that, you need to use your own vehicle, which can be a motorcycle or a car, and it must be no more than 15 years old from the date of manufacture.

In addition, the delivery person still needs to fill out some requirements, which are:

• Possess a valid driver's license (CNH - Carteira Nacional de Habilitação);
• Having an open CNPJ (National Registry of Legal Entities);
• To be registered as a MEI (Individual Microentrepreneur) in a category related to the activity of transporting goods and making deliveries;
• If the registered vehicle is a motorcycle, it is also necessary to have a closed backpack or trunk of at least 80 liters in order to transport deliveries safely.

It's worth mentioning that this opportunity is for people over 18 years of age, and registration is required to begin deliveries.

Check the registration procedure.
