Surrender a NSW driver or rider licence voluntarily

Introduction

If you need to voluntarily surrender a NSW Driver's or Rider's Licence because it's either no longer required, you're moving interstate or overseas, or the licensee is deceased, you can do this at a service centre.

What you need

• Your Driver's or Rider's Licence (if available)
• If you don't have the licence, you'll need to provide a letter from an interstate licensing authority confirming that it was transferred to a licence in another state or territory
• If you're surrendering a licence for someone else, you'll need to provide written evidence of authority
• Your proof of identity
• If the licensee is deceased, evidence of the death is required (refunds may be applicable)

How to surrender

1. Gather the required documentation
2. Visit a service centre and submit the information in person
