Hi there! When applying for a private hire taxi licence, having diabetes and taking medications like metformin and Gliclazide shouldn’t necessarily prevent you from getting approved, but it may depend on how well your diabetes is managed. You will likely need to provide a medical report from your doctor to demonstrate that your condition is under control and won’t affect your ability to drive safely. It’s always best to check with your local licensing authority, as they will have specific guidelines regarding medical conditions. Good luck with your application!
