international license to australian license

So you've landed Down Under with your international driving license and want to swap it for an Aussie one? Here's the lowdown: if your international license is current and in English (or accompanied by a certified translation), you can generally drive in Australia for up to three months without converting. After that, you'll need to apply for an Australian license, which usually involves passing a knowledge test and a practical driving test, depending on your home country's licensing agreement with Australia.

Key points:

  • Valid international license or translation required.
  • Three-month grace period for driving on a visitor visa.
  • Tests required vary by state and country of origin.
  • Fees apply for conversion and tests.

Check the official state transport authority websites or ServiceCentral for the nitty-gritty details tailored to your situation.
