Hi,
does anyone know if you have to retake your driving test if you settle in Tasmania?

[Hi Harry,
Yes you do have to resit a driving test over in Tassie. I'll let you know further once we have done ours in August

Re: driving licence in tasmania
Unless Tasmania get around to implementing the national recognition scheme for overseas licences in the meantime
They're in competition with the Northern Territory for the slowest jurisdiction - every other state/territory in Australia now gives proper recognition to UK licences.
And Tasmania is supposed to *want* migrants to settle there.
Many states (incl NSW) let you keep a UK licence, but they endorse it to make it invalid in Australia.

So to avoid having to take a driving test, you land in NSW (or QLD etc), swap the UK licence for a NSW one, (with just a theory test), then go to TAS, and swap the NSW one for a TAS one
