Kia ora Paul,
Thanks for your email. Our reference is 37412955.
To be eligible to convert to a New Zealand class 5 licence the India
driver licence must be current or expired not more than 12 months ago and
display a class of HV or HGV or TRANS as being held.
In addition the Licence Holder will require a certificate of particulars,
issued by the India driver licensing authority not more than six months
previously. The information on the certificate of particulars must confirm
the classes held and the type and weight of vehicle that is licensed to
drive. For class 5 , this must state a truck/trailer or combination
vehicle, with GCW over 25,000kg.
We also require evidence of the licence validity.
