Vehicle registrations and driver licence transfers in the ACT

Access Canberra publishes monthly counts of the vehicles registered in the ACT and of the driver licences that move between the ACT and other places.

The collection holds three tables. Vehicles registered gives the number of registered vehicles on the first day of each month by body type and motive power, which tracks the uptake of electric and other zero emission vehicles. The two licence tables count ACT driver licences transferred to another state and licences from other states and overseas transferred to the ACT, by month.

Access Canberra, City and Environment Directorate releases these 3 tables as one dataset on its portal, so every table here shares the version date 2026-10-02. Each table has its own page with a format picker, a field list, a sample record and its version history.

Also called: ACT driver licence surrenders to other states, ACT licences transferred to other states, ACT vehicle fleet by motive power, ACT zero emission vehicle uptake, Canberra drivers moving interstate, Canberra electric vehicle registrations, Driver licences transferred to the ACT, Overseas licence conversions in Canberra, People moving to Canberra by licence transfer, Total vehicles registered in the ACT.
