I suggest you log onto ""australian driving licence'' which has ALL the information you may require for different states . Colin

Hi There,
We will be relocating to the Melbourne area on a temporary visa and have also looked into what we need to do regarding our licenses. If you intend to be in Victoria for most of your time visit
VicRoads : VicRoads which has information on Victorian licensing laws. You can use your UK license for as long as your temporary visa is vaild providing your license doesn't expire before that, so make sure your photocard has plenty of time left. You can drive any vehicle currently on your UK license but I would think that if you don't already have a motorbike license that would have to take the test over there.
Hope that helps, Claire.
