How old do you need to be to get a Queensland driver's licence?

Question

My daughter is 15 and can get her licence now before it changes in August, but I have heard that it will be worthless in Queensland?

You need to be at least 16 years of age to get a Queensland licence. If she is going to be 16 when she arrives in Queensland to change over her licence there won't be a problem. But if she is still 15 then she will have to wait. There is more info here: http://www.tmr.qld.gov.au/Licensing/Getting-a-licence/Car-licence/Learner-licence/Interstate-and-overseas-learners.aspx
