Driver license codes explained

In South Africa, the driving licence is the official document which authorises the holder to drive a motor vehicle on a public road. Driving licences are issued by authorised driving licence testing centres, which are run by the municipalities under the supervision of the provincial and national Departments of Transport.[1] Since 1998, the driving licence has been issued in a "credit card format"; before then it was included in the holder's national identity document. The minimum age to hold a licence is 18. Apply for a driving licence | South African with the exception of Code A1 for which the minimum age is 16

Hi Morné, I got a quick question, I got my license on the 17th of Nov 2023 and I was informed that I might get one of the new license cards but when I googled it, C1 limits you to 7.5T, my question is, will I have to go for a new test to go to 16T or can I apply for an exemption or something? The DLTC couldn't give me an answer.
