各位：

本人在英国拿了驾照且开过两年，近期就要移民到温哥华，那位朋友能告知我是否还须办理什么手续，还是加拿大认同英国的驾照？谢谢！

我上次去交通部的时候,正好听到一个从英国搬来的人在转驾照. 他好象就不用再考了. 不过, 还是要看他们认为你开的时间够不够转成CLASS 5. 建议你去交通部的网站看一下.

在bc省， 有7个国家的驾照可以直接转为BC驾照， 但不包括英国。参考ICBC网站

Canadian, American, Austrian, German, Swiss, Japanese or South Korean driver's licence?
=====================================================

You will be issued a new equivalent class B.C. driver's licence. In most cases, you will not need to take a road test if you hold:

a Canadian or American passenger car or motorcycle operator's licence, or
an Austrian, German or Swiss Category B or German Class 3 driver's licence for passenger cars, or
a Japanese Ordinary driver's licence or a South Korean Class 2 Ordinary driver's licence for passenger cars, or
a Canadian licence equivalent to a B.C. Class 1, 2, 3 or 4 (commercial) licence
and your licence is valid or expired less than 3 years ago.



Here’s how to get your B.C. licence:

1. Take your licence and one piece of primary and one piece of secondary identification to any driver licensing office. You may also be required to provide a translation of your driver's licence and a driver's abstract.

2. Answer some traffic safety awareness questions (you may wish to review RoadSense for Drivers, available at an ICBC driver licensing office).

3. Undergo a vision screening and answer some questions about your medical and physical fitness. You may also be given a medical form to complete if you have a medical condition [click for definition] that might affect your ability to drive or if you're applying for a commercial licence.
4. Fill out and sign the application form and other documents.

5. Have your photo taken, and receive your new B.C. driver’s licence. Fee: $31.

Your licence is valid for 2 years. Then it can be renewed for 5 years.

Thanks

Thank you very much for your assistances.

Exchanging an Out-Of-Province Driver's Licence
If you have a driver's licence from another Canadian province or territory or from another country, your previous driving experience may help you to get an Ontario driver's licence sooner. If you hold the equivalent of a learner's permit or novice licence from another jurisdiction, you may get credit for your driving experience, however, your licence will not be valid for exchange unless you hold a Level 2 novice licence from British Columbia, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick or the Yukon. These novice licences may be exchanged for an Ontario Level 2 novice licence.

Fee Table
Exchanging an Out-of-Province Licence Cost
Knowledge Test $10.00
90 Day (M1) Licence $7.50
Five Year Licence $75.00
Class G1 or M1 Road Test $40.00
Class G2 or M2 Road Test $75.00

Note: The above charges are Net. No additional taxes are collected.
We accept all major Credit Cards, Travellers Cheques, Debit Card, Money Order and Bank Drafts. Certified Cheques are accepted.

If you are a new resident of Ontario and have a valid driver's licence from another province or country, you can use that licence for a maximum of 60 days in Ontario. If you want to continue to drive after 60 days, you must get an Ontario driver's licence.

Note: A driver's licence issued by another province, territory or country is considered acceptable proof if it shows the required driving experience. If it does not, you will need to provide a written confirmation from your previous licensing authority of your driving experience. If you do not have acceptable proof of your driving experience, you will only receive credit for the driving experience shown on your driver's licence or from the interprovincial record exchange search conducted at the DriveTest Driver Examination Centre.

Drivers from other Canadian provinces, Canadian Forces-Europe, U.S.A., Japan, Korea, Switzerland, Germany, France, Great Britain and Austria.
2 or More Years of Driving Experience Within the Last Three Years
If you are a licensed driver with two or more years of driving experience from one of these jurisdictions you may get full class licence privileges without taking a knowledge or road test. However, you must pass a vision test and show acceptable proof of your previous licence status and driving experience.

If you hold a controlled class licence (A,B,C,D,E,F) from a Canadian province or territory, you may exchange your licence for the equivalent Ontario class of licence (a class B or E licence will be exchanged for a class C or F licence respectively).

Visit a DriveTest Driver Examination Centre or contact the MTO Driver & Vehicle Licensing Call Centre at (416) 235-2999 or toll free at 1-800-387-3445.

Less than 2 Years of Driving Experience Within the Last Three Years
If you have less than two years of driving experience, you may get credit for your experience for graduated licensing and be issued a Class G2 or M2 licence. Once you have a total of two years of driving experience, you may take the G2 or M2 road test to earn full driving privileges.

If you hold a controlled class licence from a Canadian province or territory, once you are eligible to attempt the G2 road test, you must pass the road test within one year of the licence exchange to be issued the equivalent controlled class licence. If you pass the G2 road test after one year from the date of exchange, you will be issued a class G licence.

If you are a licensed driver with two or more years of driving experience from one of these jurisdictions, you may get full Class G licence privileges without taking a knowledge or road test. However, you must pass a vision test and show acceptable proof of your previous licence status and driving experience.

Note: These conditions also apply to licensed motorcycle riders from other Canadian provinces, from the United States, Switzerland and Canadian Forces - Europe. However there is currently no exchange agreement for motorcycle riders from the remaining jurisdictions.

Drivers from any other country
2 or More Years of Driving Experience Within the Last Three Years
You must pass vision and knowledge tests to be issued a Class G1 licence. If you have acceptable proof of two or more years of driving experience, you have two options.

You may book a G2 road test. If you pass, you will earn full driving privileges. If you do not pass this test, you keep your Class G1 licence and may then immediately book a G1 road test. Once you have passed the G1 road test you must reattempt the G2 road test to earn full driving priveleges.


If you decide you need more practice, you may book a G1 road test to earn G2 driving privileges. If you pass this test, you will get a Class G2 licence and may book a G2 road test (when you feel you are ready and before your licence expires). If you do not pass, you will keep the Class G1 licence, and may re-book another G1 road test.
Less than 2 Years of Driving Experience Within the Last Three Years
You may get credit for your experience for graduated licensing. You must pass vision and knowledge tests to be issued a Class G1 licence. Once you have the required driving experience, you may book the G1 and G2 road tests.

You must stay as a G1 driver until you have at least 12 months driving experience before you will be eligible to take the G1 road test to graduate to a G2 licence. You must stay as a G2 driver until you have at least 12 months driving experience before you will be eligible to take the G2 road test to graduate to a full class G licence.
