Steps to Obtain Your Quebec Driving License

Step 2: Visit a SAAQ Office
Visit any Société de l'assurance automobile du Québec (SAAQ) office in-person with your required documents. You can schedule an appointment online to minimize wait times.
Step 3: Submit Your Application
Submit your completed application form along with the required documents to a SAAQ representative. You may have to pay a fee for the license exchange.
Step 4: Mandatory Vision Test
All applicants must pass a mandatory vision test at the SAAQ office. To pass, you must have a minimum visual acuity of 20/40 in each eye with or without corrective lenses.
Step 5: Receive Your Quebec Driving License

Additional Notes
If your foreign driver's license has restrictions or endorsements, they will be transferred to your Quebec license.
* If you obtain your Quebec driving license before the expiration date of your foreign license, it will be invalidated and returned to the issuing jurisdiction.
* You must report any changes to your address or license status (e.g., suspensions, cancellations) to the SAAQ.
