More information

  • You may need to pay a card replacement fee. 
  • The replacement card will have the same expiry date as the original lost or stolen card, and the original card will be cancelled. 
  • If the lost or stolen card is due to expire within 21 days, you need to renew online and be reassessed for eligibility. 
  • Your card will be mailed to you within 8 to 10 working days. Until your card arrives, you'll need to pay for an adult travel fare. 
  • You must carry your transport concession entitlement card (proof of entitlement) when travelling with a concession ticket or a concession Opal card, or you may be fined.
