Hi,

I have a Japanese Driving License. Do i have to give G1 test again and also pass the road test in Ontario?? I have a experience of 6 years of driving in Japan. Soon i am upgrading my license so i can also drive truck and bus. Would it be easier to get it converted in Canada ?


Cheers,

Cheers,
1. In Ontario you can swap a Japanese license for a full provincial license if you have 2 years driving experience. You require proof and a translation see: http://www.drivetest.ca/en/license/OutOfCountryDrivers.aspx
2. Truck and Bus licenses are not exchangable.

Sucks if you're Australian... I've been driving for 15 years and had to do a written AND driving test in order to get my Quebec license! Biggest scam ever.

Pretty funny though - I was so nervous doing the tests again! haha..
