Introduction

If you're going to participate in the Alcohol Interlock Program, you'll need to visit a service centre and be issued a NSW car, rider, or heavy vehicle licence (whichever is applicable) with an interlock condition.

You can do this once you've completed the necessary disqualification period, attended a medical consultation, and had an interlock device installed on your vehicle.

Note: Learner drivers will only be issued an interlock licence once their driving test has been passed.

  • payment for any licence fees, or your concession card (if applicable)

    • 'Interlock Installation Certificate', completed by you and your accredited interlock service provider
    • 'Medical Consultation Certificate' completed by you and your doctor (you must see your doctor in the 28 days before you apply for an interlock licence).
