Identification

In order to sit the test, you will be required to show one form of photo-bearing identification.

Candidates who register to sit the test by remote proctoring will upload identification and a portrait photograph for verification during the registration process. The identification provided must be valid for the entire test window for which you are registering.   

Candidates who register to sit the test in a test centre will show identification to the test supervisors on the test day. The identification provided must be valid on the day you sit the test. 

 The only acceptable forms of identification are:

  • Current photo-bearing passport
  • Current photo-bearing driver's licence (learner’s permit, probationary or full licence)
  • Current photo-bearing Australian Keypass
  • Current photo-bearing Australian Proof of Age Card

The photograph on your identification document must be recognisable as a likeness to you as you are on the day of the test. No other form of identification will be accepted. 

If you do not have one of these forms of identification, please allow enough time to organise one before the test date as you will not be able to enter the test centre or sit the test by remote proctoring without an approved form of identification. Some of these identification documents can take approximately one month to obtain.

If you are intending to use your driver’s licence as identification and need to renew or update your licence before the test date (for example changing from a learner’s permit to a probationary licence or from a probationary licence to a full licence), please ensure you allow adequate time to receive the new licence. A temporary licence without a photograph or a combination of temporary licence and expired approved identification will not be accepted as identification.

Your date of birth, first and last name on your identification document must match your Admission Ticket details. 

Neither student cards nor identification documents that have expired will be accepted under any circumstances. Copies and screenshots of identification documents are also not acceptable forms of ID.
