    @KTP Hindi mo na kailangan ng international drivers license. Magagamit mo actually yung current drivers license mo sa pinas for 3 months.

    Hello po! manghihingi lang po ako ng tulong. Under 457 work visa po kasi ako, and based po sa mga nabasa ko, pwede po mag-drive sa AU kapag meron Phil. License.

    Kaso po, wala po ako phil. license, meron po ako dati student license pero matagal na po yun at di ko napa-change sa Non-Pro license kasi po nagpunta na po kami sa SG. Ang plan ko po sana is kukuha na lang ako AU license sa Victoria. Meron po ba members dito na wala po license sa Pinas at deretso na kumuha sa AU? Nagtanong po kasi ako sa Pinas kung pwede po makakuha ng license ng rush (1 wk lang po ako uuwi), ang bayad daw po ay PhP10K. Naisip ko po, sa AU na ako kukuha mismo kasi mahal po yun sa Pinas. Salamat po.

    waaahh!!! mukhang wala na nga po ako choice, kasi po si hubby wala din Phil license. Mukhang kailangan ko nga po makakuha kasi po ako talaga yun need na mgdrive dahil kasama sa work scope ko. Then si hubby, sa AU ko na lang po pakuhain ng license, tutal pag may Phil license po ako, makakadrive po siya basta kasama po ako. Maraming salamat po :)

    tama po. Pero kapag Phil driver's license ang hawak mo hindi ka pwedeng magturo ng L na dl sa AU kasi hindi kasama sa recognised country ang Phils.

    yes tama po.. pag PR, you can only drive (using any valid license) for up to 3mos for WA only ..
    after that or within that 3mos dapat maayos mo na ang AU license mo para hindi hassle kung kailangan mag drive..
