change qld licence to nsw

Moving south of the border? To change your QLD licence to NSW, visit a Service NSW centre within 3 months of taking up residence, bringing your current QLD licence, proof of identity, and proof of NSW address.

They’ll check your eyesight, take a new mugshot, charge a fee, and you’ll surrender the Queensland card for the equivalent NSW class (learner/provisional/full matched accordingly).

No tests are usually needed if your Australian licence is current and valid—unless there are suspensions, medical conditions, or heavy-vehicle bits to sort out.

Book ahead if queues make you twitchy, and expect standard NSW licence fees and conditions to apply.
