Renew in Ararat
If you need to renew your drivers or marine license you can do it easily and fast using the following services.
You will receive a notification four weeks before your license expires to remind you of the next expiration date and to proceed with the renewal. (It is very important to keep your personal information updated at all times on the system to receive the letters and notifications correctly). This reminder will inform you that your license is about to be expired, and also it will tell you if you need to take a new picture for the license, or if you can use the same one.*
Please note that the following procedures are available for renewing licenses that have expired for less than 6 months.
License renewal using the same picture.
The VicRoads will inform you if you need to take a new picture or not in the reminder notice. In case you use the same picture and if your personal information is still the same, you will be allowed to renew your license by phone. Call the number 1300 554 853 and follow the instructions explained. To finish the procedure, you will have to pay a fee by card (Only VISA or MASTERCARD).
After the procedure is finished you will receive your new License by mail in approximately 10 days. Please be sure that you keep your receipt until the transaction is fully completed.
