Welcome to the Magistrates’ Court of Victoria Online Driver’s Licence Restoration Guide.
If you have lost your driver’s licence for drink or drug driving, this guide will outline what you are required to do in order to apply to be re-licenced. It also outlines what, if any, your Alcohol Interlock Device conditions will be if you become re-licenced.
If this is your first drink driving offence, and you had a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) below 0.07%, you are not required to obtain a court order to be re-licenced. Please contact Vicroads directly for further information about obtaining your licence (Vicroads contact details below).
To determine your re-licencing requirements, you may be required to provide any, or all of the following information:
- Date of offence;
- Date of disqualification;
- Your age at the time of offence;
- Your Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) at the time of the offence;
- If this was your first, second, or subsequent offence;
- What offence you were charged with.
If you do not know these details, and you lost your licence as a result of an on-the-spot infringement, the information required can be obtained from Vicroads, who can be contacted on 13 11 71 or at the Vicroads website.
If you do not know your offence details, and you lost your licence at a Victorian Magistrates' Court, the required information is available from any Magistrates' Court location.
