Coming from Holland I have a driving license and driving experience for over the 24 mouths in the last 3 years.

Do I understand well if I can take the G2 road test immediately, without doing a G1 test first?

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

We can appreciate that you would be interested in this type of information.

You can find some detailed information in our Settlement.Org I have a driver's licence from another country. How do I get an Ontario driver's licence? article.

Here is an excerpt,

You may be able to exchange it for an Ontario driver's licence. The type of licence you can get depends on how much driving experience you have and if the country has a reciprocal agreement with Ontario.


and


Countries With a Reciprocal Agreement

Some countries, like the United States, Australia, France and Korea, have an agreement with Ontario which allows licensed drivers to obtain an Ontario licence without having to go through the regular process for obtaining a licence in this province.

If you have a driver's licence from one of these jurisdictions with Licence Exchange Agreement, you can benefit from this privilege.The type of licence you can get depends on how much driving experience you have.

You follow the same process as drivers with a licence from another Canadian province and from Canadian Forces - Europe.


Read about the Licence Exchange program on the DriveTest website to learn more about the process and the documents required.

You may want to contact DriveTest at their Toll Free Number 1-800-489-8450 to speak to a Customer Service Agent to find out what your options are in this situation.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
