It depends on your province and your country
Driver's licences are issued by provinces, not by the federal government. Each province has a list of countries whose licences can be exchanged without a road test.
What to expect
- If your country has an agreement, you can often exchange your licence after a vision test.
- If not, you may need a knowledge test and road tests. Driving experience from abroad may count toward the full licence.
- You can usually drive on your foreign licence for a short time after you arrive. The time limit depends on the province.
Bring
Your foreign licence, a certified translation if it is not in English or French, your immigration document and proof of address.
