Overseas Licence

We can help you with your application for a Victorian driver’s licence.

If your overseas driver’s licence is more than 3 years old, you will get a full Victorian driver’s licence upon completion of formalities.

Australian traffic travels on the left side of the road unlike some countries in Asia, Europe, Africa and America’s.

People requiring some refresher driving lessons could contact us or take advantage of our package deals to better drive on Victorian roads.
