Driver Licence Application - Queensland
Queensland driver licence renewal kit
General notice for applicants temporarily residing interstate or overseas
This kit is provided by the Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) to assist you in renewing, upgrading or
re-applying of your Queensland (Qld) driver licence if you are temporarily residing interstate or overseas.
Please note you can not use this kit if your licence is expired by more than five years or if your licence is currently
cancelled or you are currently disqualified from holding or obtaining a driver licence in Australia or another country.
If your licence has expired and you do not wish to drive while you are absent from Qld, you may renew the licence up to five
years after the date of expiry before being required to undertake another written and practical (on road) driving test. However,
if you need to drive, you should return your completed application and relevant documentation promptly and allow for
overseas mail delays. It is important that all correct documentation is received by TMR at least two weeks before your licence
expires to enable your driver licence to be renewed prior to the expiry date.
Licensing requirements for temporary residents in other states and countries may differ to those in Qld. On taking up
temporary residency it is recommended that you contact the appropriate Licensing Authority to ensure that you are aware of
and continue to meet local requirements. You must also contact the Licensing Authority if your residency status changes, for
example, if you do not intend to return to Qld to live.
New Queensland driver licence
A new Qld driver licence is being introduced to replace the existing laminated driver licence. The move to a credit card sized
plastic product, embedded with a chip, will improve the licence durability and security. As your driver licence is due for
renewal, you may be eligible to apply for the new Qld driver licence.
If the photographs given by you do not meet the minimum standard for the issue of the new Qld driver licence, you may be
issued a laminate driver licence. To upgrade to the new Qld driver licence you will need to apply in person when you return to
Qld.
You may choose to renew your licence for a period of one to five years. Following are the new Qld driver licence fees –
1 year is A$64.20, 2 years is A$89.50, 3 years is A$110.75, 4 years is A$128.15 or 5 years is A$143.75.
Note: Fees increase 1 July each year. Current driver licensing fees can be found on the department’s website
.
Please read the following Application Requirements carefully and use the Application Checklist to confirm that all
required documentation has been provided to ensure that your application can be processed.
