If your current Victorian licence or learner permit card has been lost, stolen or damaged, you must apply for a replacement card as soon as possible.

If you are a learner permit holder, probationary licence holder, under the age of 26 years or have a heavy vehicle licence, you must carry your licence at all times when driving or penalties will apply.

You can apply to replace your licence or learner permit card in the following ways:
Online

By telephone
You can call VicRoads on 13 11 71 (Mon-Fri 8.30am – 5.00pm, Sat 8.30am – 2.00pm) to check if a current photo image exists on VicRoads Driver Licensing System. If not, you will need to apply in person at a VicRoads Customer Service Centre.
