Re-classing your licence

When re-classing your driver’s licence (excluding Class 7 to Class 5), you must present proof that you have completed a knowledge test and vision test through a registry agent office.

Re-classing your driver’s licence from your current class to a Class 1, 2, or 4 licence will also require a medical report. See the medical requirements section for more information.

A fee is charged for each knowledge test, road test, and for the final licence re-classification service.

For information knowledge test fee, visit: www.alberta.ca/drivers-knowledge-test.aspx

For information on road test fee, visit: www.alberta.ca/drivers-road-test.aspx.

Driving with the wrong licence class is against the law. It is an offence for vehicle owners to allow their vehicle to be used by someone who does not have the proper class of licence for that vehicle.

Replacing your Alberta driver’s licence

If your driver’s licence is lost, stolen, destroyed, or is unreadable, you must apply for a replacement immediately at a registry agent office.

If your driver’s licence is stolen, you must report it to the police, and provide a copy of the police report to the registry agent when you apply for your replacement.
