Previously, in order to become an Uber driver in Sydney, you had to hold a private hire driver authority. Since November 2017, driver authorities have ceased to have effect in NSW. The new process to have a Passenger Transport licence code added to your driver’s licence record is now managed by Uber.

How much does a Passenger Transport licence code cost?

The total cost of a Passenger Transport licence code is $22 (for the driving history check) and will take up to 14 business days to be processed.

How to apply for a Passenger Transport licence code?

To apply for your Passenger Transport licence code, you can do one of two things:

• Visit your local Splend Hub and sign up with Splend and we’ll facilitate your application and cover the $22 cost of your driving history check
• Apply for a Passenger Transport licence code

All  Uber drivers in Sydney who already hold a valid private hire drivers authority will be automatically transferred to the new point-to-point regulatory framework.
