More information
- Digital licences are available on an opt-in basis; you'll still receive a physical licence or permit.
- Licences will be available in a carousel on the homescreen. Registrations will be available by tapping 'Registrations' in the Tools section.
- The digital Boat Driving Licence is not valid when operating a personal watercraft (PWC) at any speed. If you're driving a PWC you must carry your physical PWC licence.
