Apply for a provisional rider licence (undeclared area)

Declared and undeclared areas

Introduction

To upgrade to a provisional (P1) rider licence in an undeclared area you must first pass a kerbside rider skills test.

You can book a kerbside rider skills test by visiting a Service NSW Centre or calling 13 22 13.

After passing the test, apply in person at a service centre for your provisional rider licence.

When you visit the service centre, you can apply for a NSW Photo Card at the same time, and pay a reduced application fee for it.
