** Paying the application fee.

This also applies if you are replacing your licence for other reasons, such as when you have added a new vehicle class to your license .

Replacing a stolen driver’s licence:
If your licence has been stolen, you do not need to pay the required fee. However, you must file a Western Australian (WA) Police report.

Please provide the police report number in your application to waive the application fee.

Step 1: Complete application form
Please download the form DL 26 to apply for a replacement driver’s licence.

Step 2: Provide proof of identity
You will need to provide acceptable primary and secondary proof of identification. One of these must show your signature.

If you are applying by post, you will need to send us certified copies of your identity documents. Please contact us to confirm we hold a valid photo for you before you apply by post.

If you are applying in person, you may bring originals to be witnessed by a Department of Transport employee.

Please go to Proof of identity for more information.
