Why you'll love driving

Set your own schedule

You can drive with Uber anytime, day or night, 365 days a year. When you drive is always up to you, so it never gets in the way of the important things in your life.

Make money at every turn

Trip fares are calculated using several trip factors, including time and distance, market conditions, and real-time demand at the destination.

Meet new people and learn about your city

You'll meet and have conversations with people from all walks of life. From long-time residents to first-time tourists, families, small business owners, and more. You'll also become an expert on your local community and discover new places to show your friends and family.

Instructions for drivers

1. Sign up online

Tell us a little about yourself and your car by creating a driver profile.

2. Minimum vehicle requirements

Your vehicle must meet the requirements to drive with Uber in Saskatoon. Check if your vehicle is qualified.

Note: Under local regulations for Saskatoon, all driver-partners must display an Uber decal on their vehicle while online.

3. Share your documents

Take photos of the following documents and upload them to your account:

  • Drivers licence
  • Certificate of Registration
  • Proof of work eligibility
  • Mechanical Safety Inspection Certificate with a Light Vehicle Inspection
  • Criminal Records Check with the Vulnerable Sector
4. Safety Screenings

For Saskatoon, you must pass an annual background screening, which includes a review of your driving record and criminal history. Additionally, upon onboarding, you are required to provide an one-time Vulnerable Sector Check (VSC). In Saskatoon, you have two options:

Option 1: Online Screening

Most drivers complete their screening quickly and securely online via our vendor, ISB. Once your driver's licence and profile picture has been uploaded and approved, you'll receive a link from ISB, our trusted background screening partner. Check the Background Check section of the Documents Hub in your Uber App or your email (including spam) for a link from ISB to begin this process. If you need assistance with your application, you can reach ISB at uber@isbglobalservices.com.


Please note: The online screening includes a Criminal Record Check, not a Vulnerable Sector Check.


Option 2: Provide Your Own Documents

If you prefer to obtain your own screening, you must provide your Driver Abstract (Saskatchewan Driver's Abstract from SGI) and a Criminal Record Check.


Please note:

  • The document must be submitted to Uber within 30 days of the document’s issue date.
  • Your local police department may charge a fee for this service.
  • Once you have received your document, please contact Uber Support to upload the document for review.

Additional One-Time Vulnerable Sector Check (VSC)

In addition to the Criminal Record Check and Saskatchewan Driver's Abstract from SGI, Saskatoon requires a one-time Vulnerable Sector Check (Level 3). Vulnerable Sector Checks must be completed by your local police service, which can be obtained from the Saskatoon Police Service, RCMP or any police department in Saskatchewan where you reside.

To obtain your criminal record check, you must visit your local police department or RCMP detachment. Local police services charge a fee for this screening; which is not reimbursed by Uber. The document must be submitted to Uber within 30 days of the document’s issue date. Once you receive your document, upload this to the Documents Hub in your Uber app

New and existing drivers must pass a background screening every calendar year.

5. Vehicle inspection

To be eligible to drive with Uber, your vehicle must pass a Light Vehicle Inspection by an approved mechanic. Upon passing, you’ll receive a Mechanical Safety Inspection Certificate with a Light Vehicle Inspection.

Once you receive your certificate, upload the certificate to your Uber account.

6. Register for GST

The CRA requires drivers to apply for a GST account within 30 days of your first trip with Uber. It takes a few minutes to complete and you’ll have your GST number instantly. Here are step-by-step instructions to help you with the process.

Uber stickers

When your vehicle inspection and background screening have been approved, we will mail two Uber stickers to your mailing address.

Display the stickers. One sticker must go on the front passenger window and the other must go on the back windshield. The stickers are removable and only need to be displayed when you're driving with Uber.
