Can you move your licence application to another provincial office?

A transfer to a UMC in another province must be agreed with the office holding your file and the receiving office. Before moving it, clarify how completed and booked tests will be recorded.

Agree the transfer between offices

If you move province while a licence application is open, the file does not move automatically just because your address changes. Contact the sending UMC, explain why you want the transfer and ask which procedure and documents it requires. Check with the receiving office that it can accept the file and handle your licence category and current stage.

Before sending anything, list tests already taken, recorded attempts, your learner’s permit, payments linked to the application and any appointment. These details may affect continuity: ask explicitly how they will be transferred or recognised. Do not take a test at the new office until the application is correctly in its system. Keep messages from both UMCs and the transfer protocol number.

Avoid duplicate applications and missed appointments

If the receiving UMC asks you for a new form, first check whether this starts a new procedure or merely records the existing file. Avoid paying again or booking tests until you have clarified whether earlier receipts and attempts remain valid. The exact process can depend on your application stage and local instructions, so ask for written next steps.

For example, if you have passed theory and booked the practical test, the new office needs to know both the result and the appointment. Give it the application reference and ask for the transfer before arranging another examination.
