What you need in New South Wales

- Be at least 21, and have held a full unrestricted licence of the relevant class for three of the last four years
- Hold a Certificate IV in motor vehicle driver training
- Pass a commercial medical assessment
- Hold a Working With Children Check — applications are lodged through Service NSW
This is a summary, not the full rules, and requirements change. Check Transport for NSW before you apply.
