No, you do not have to get a NSW driver licence if you wish to drive in NSW while you are visiting. You can drive on your current overseas licence as long as: • You remain a visitor • Your overseas licence remains current • You have not been disqualified from driving in NSW or elsewhere, and • You have not had your licence suspended or cancelled or your visiting driver privileges withdrawn. Note: Australian citizens who reside overseas and are not permanent residents of Australia are allowed to drive in NSW on a current overseas licence as an international visitor. There is no need to apply for the issue or renewal of a NSW licence.
