Applying to get your licence back
If your driver’s licence has been cancelled, you may need to make an application to the Magistrates’ Court of Victoria or VicRoads to get it back.
If you need to apply to the Magistrates’ Court to get your licence back, the relevant order is called a licence eligibility order.
You may need to make a licence eligibility order application if you lost your driver’s licence due to:
- a drug driving offence
- a serious motor vehicle offence
- an offence of dangerous or negligently driving while pursued by police
- an offence of theft or attempted theft of a motor vehicle.
For more information contact your nearest Magistrates' Court.
Go to the Transport Victoria website if you have lost your driver licence due to:
- a drink driving offence
- a combined drink and drug driving offence.
