To change your licence to Victoria, do it through VicRoads once you become a resident—generally within 6 months of moving here.
Bring proof of identity and Victorian address, your current licence, and be ready for an eyesight check; some overseas licences require knowledge, hazard-perception and/or drive tests, while recognised countries can be test‑exempt.
Interstate licence holders usually swap straight across, surrender the old card, pay the fee, and leave with a temporary paper licence while the plastic one arrives by post.
Book an appointment online, because turning up unannounced is a great way to meet a queue.
If your licence isn’t in English, you’ll need a NAATI translation or an International Driving Permit, and you must declare any medical conditions.
