    Here is the link to the new information. You can use it from the USA as long as its current.
    .

    Thats for visitors and isnt new.

    Then you must go to the NSW page and it all changes As it seems you have moved here to live as witnessed by importing your car etc a visitor licence no longer applies.
    Once you have a permanent address in a state, any state and you pay utilities or insurance etc you have a certain time to get a licence in that state
    EG you move from NSW to QLD and buy a house and live in QLD You have 14 days to change registration over to QLD and 3 months to change licence to QLD. If you dont and have an accident you will be unregistered, unlicenced and UNINSURED.

    Read the words here Moving to NSW - Licence - Roads - Roads and Maritime Services

    You can register a car without a licence but not drive it.

    If you get caught on an overseas licence that wont stop the fines etc, they will just make them bigger and maybe add unlicenced and uninsured on as well.

    You should also read the rules here Historic Registration - Club VeeDub

    You have to be a member for 12 months before applying for rego and when you get it you can only use it to go to Club events or take the car for servicing. YOU CANT USE IT AS A DAILY DRIVE You also have to keep a log book.

    Terrible country isnt it.
