Do I need to be vaccinated to sit a Drive Test? 

Yes. You must be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 (have received 2 doses of an approved vaccine) or you must provide your own negative COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test result from a sample taken on the day of your driver or rider licence test (a photo of your negative test next to your existing licence on a mobile phone is sufficient). 

Do I still need to wear a mask when participating in a Drive Test?

Yes. Unless a lawful exemption applies, Drive Test participants must wear a fitted face mask for the duration of the test.

If a Drive Test applicant is unable to wear a face mask, the test can still proceed, however all other participants including VicRoads staff and Licence Testing Officers, driver trainers / driving instructors and interpreters – must wear a mask (no exemptions).

What tests can I take online?

With a myVicRoads account, you can now take the Learner Permit Test or Hazard Perception Test Online. 

What happens if my overseas licence is about to expire?

Overseas licence holders can continue to drive on their overseas licence, provided it is current and they have not already been unsuccessful on a drive test. Customers can visit the Overseas drivers webpage and use the online tool to work out by when they’ll need to convert their overseas licence to a Victorian licence. 

We will continue to protect the health and wellbeing of all customers and staff, with our strict hygiene and safety protocols currently in place for both Drive Test vehicles and at all our Customer Service Centres across Victoria. 
 
A range of safety measures are in place to ensure drive testing commences safely. This includes appropriate cleaning of vehicles used in tests, increased hand hygiene protocols for all occupants in the vehicle and the use of appropriate personal protection equipment as stipulated by VicRoads for all vehicle occupants as requested.

Seasonal registration for heavy vehicles

Seasonal registration means you can nominate parts of the year your heavy vehicle is in use and only pay for the months it's being used. All heavy vehicles (vehicles with a GVM over 4.5 tonnes) can use seasonal registration.

Seasonal periods

The registration cycle is a 12-month period which begins on the date of the application to register a vehicle and ends at midnight on the same date the following year.

The minimum duration you can nominate is three months and the maximum is nine months. 

You can only register your vehicle for one or two seasonal periods within a single registration cycle, as long as the combined total doesn’t exceed nine months. For example, you might nominate the first seasonal period for four months and the second seasonal period for five months. 

Who can apply?

Vehicles with a gross vehicle mass (GVM) of greater than 4.5 tonnes are eligible to apply. This may include tour bus operators, heavy trailers, tow trucks etc.
