If it's used for commercial purposes, it is. If not, it isn't. If you're asking for the sake of wanting to know whether or not it requires a CDL, the answer is no, unless it's either a bus designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver) or it will be carrying sufficient quantities of hazardous materials to require hazmat placards to be displayed. In either case, you would be required to obtain a Class C CDL with appropriate endorsements (P for a passenger bus, S if it's a school bus, H for hazmat).

You need to specify where you're at, as laws on this vary greatly by country. In the US, diesel fuel is a commodity which you can transport up to 1,000 lbs. of without a CDL.

Along with this, you would need a DOT medical card. As far as paperwork goes, if you're traveling outside of a 100 mile radius of where you're based out of, then you need to run a logbook. You must also keep the bill of lading within reach at all times (typically, either on the passenger seat or in the pocket of the door).
