Please be advised that the Driver licensing Unit will be closed from 25 December 2026 to 4 January 2027.
During this period, licensing services will not be available.
All enquiries received during this time will be addressed within 14 working days after the Christmas break. Enquiries will be addressed in the order they are received.
Service Tasmania will also be closed from 25 December 2026 and will reopen on 4 January 2027. Please ensure you visit Service Tasmania prior to closure from 25 December.
We appreciate your understanding and wish you a safe and happy Christmas.
If you hold your P1 licence for 12 continuous months and drive safely (and not receive any P1 restart offences, disqualifications or suspensions), you’ll progress to your P2 licence.
You do not need a separate licence card and your licence will renew automatically as long as it is current.
