taylor1980 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Nope. I am on a 457 and bought a car with my South African drivers license when we got here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansaPlease Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Agree - I was on a British license when we bought our first car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamunda Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 No need for a licence. All you need is an address and ID. Proof of age card will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadEnoughofJuju Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 You will also meed to get a customer reference number from the Department of Transport and Main Roads if you want to register the car. This CRN will eventually became your DL number when you convert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyebrow Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I am in Victoria on a 457 and they wouldnt sell me a car without a conversion to Aus licence... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Thank you all for the input, I went round a car dealership today and the bloke said my SA licence will do the thing, together with a Bank card, medicare registration documents and a passport.

Kanniewagnie Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 We bought in WA 3 weeks ago, with SA drivers license. Received the DOT annual registration invoice today... $530 - ouch.On the possitive side: It was one of the easiest and most pleasent experiences to convert our licenses (after we bought the car).
