How to book the hazard perception test

Want a quieter room? Some centres run a Quiet Hour. If you need someone to read the questions to you, call 13 22 13 before you book.

  2. Book online through Service NSW, logging in with your Transport for NSW customer details or a Service NSW account.
  3. Have your licence, Photo Card or customer number ready, plus Form 1001 (Licence Application), and pay the $58 fee.
  4. Go to the Service NSW centre at your booked time with proof of identity.

Queensland

  1. Check you’ve held your learner licence for at least 6 months.

Other states

We couldn’t read VicRoads’ or South Australia’s official pages when we checked in October 2026, so Victoria and SA aren’t covered here. Tasmania, the ACT and the NT aren’t covered either. If you live there, check your own state or territory’s transport website.
