If you want to learn to ride a motorcycle, you must apply for an RE learner licence.

To get your RE learner licence, you need to:

• hold a provisional or open car licence and have held the licence for at least 1 year. This makes sure you have on-road driving experience before you learn to ride.
• successfully complete the Q-Ride pre-learner course Note: If you live outside a 100km radius of a Q-Ride training area, you may choose to apply for an exemption from completing the course, however if you are exempt from the course you will need to hold your RE learner licence for longer.
• pass a motorcycle knowledge test, and;
• be medically fit to ride
• apply for your RE learner licence.

If you have moved to Queensland, you will need to apply for a Queensland driver licence if you are:

• an Australian citizen and you've been living in Queensland for 3 months.
• not an Australian citizen but you were given a resident visa before you moved to Queensland and you have been living in Queensland for 3 months.
• not an Australian citizen, but you were given a resident visa after you moved to Queensland and you've been living in Queensland for 3 months since getting the visa.

A resident visa is a permanent visa or special category visa under the Migration Act 1958 (Commonwealth). These visas allow a person to stay indefinitely in Australia. These do not include temporary, business or guardian visas.

A class R motorcycle is a 2 or 3 wheel motorcycle
with  unlimited engine size.

Before you can learn to ride an R motorcycle or upgrade to an R
motorcycle licence you must have held an RE provisional or open licence for at least 2 years.

After you have held your RE provisional or open licence for 2
years, to get an R licence you must successfully complete the Q-Ride unrestricted (R) course or pass a Q-SAFE riding test. Check your Q-Ride
eligibility to see when you are eligible. When you complete this requirement, you can apply for your class R provisional or open licence.

If your Q-Ride training provider directly records your Q-Ride
competency declaration online with the Department of Transport and Main Roads, you may be eligible to upgrade your licence
online.

If you are issued a paper Q-Ride competency declaration or you
are not eligible to upgrade your licence online, you must apply for your class R licence at a driver licence issuing transport and motoring customer service centre.

You can apply for a Queensland licence for the same class as your interstate or overseas licence by visiting one of the following:

• transport and motoring customer service centre
• participating Queensland Government Agent Program (QGAP) office
• licence-issuing police station (in rural or remote areas of Queensland).

You must meet the minimum age requirement for the type of Queensland licence you are applying for.

You do not have to complete a driver licence application form when visiting a transport and motoring customer service centre. You will need to complete a driver licence application (F3000) at police stations and most QGAP offices.

Your authority to drive on your interstate or overseas licence will be withdrawn when you have been issued with a Queensland licence. This means you can no longer drive with your interstate or overseas licence in Queensland.

For more information, please visit: https://www.qld.gov.au/transport/licensing/driver-licensing/overseas/transfer#:~:text=You%20will%20need%20to%20complete,issued%20with%20a%20Queensland%20licence.

All motorcycle learner licence holders must pass the motorcycle hazard perception test before they can take the Q-Ride restricted (RE) course or Q-SAFE riding test.

Learn more about the motorcycle hazard perception test https://www.qld.gov.au/transport/licensing/getting/hazard/motorcycle-hazard-perception-test.

Check if you are eligible to do a Q-Ride course to get a motorcycle learner licence or progress through the motorcycle licensing system.

If you are eligible you will receive an eligibility certificate. You should take this certificate with you to give to your chosen Q-Ride training provider when you do the course.

You can only use this service if you hold a Queensland driver
licence.
