Fines Victoria

Have you changed your address recently?

Published on 13 Aug 2024

By law, you must update your address with VicRoads within 14 days of moving. This applies to changes to either a residential, postal, or business address.

Fines sent to the address registered with VicRoads are considered to be received by you 7 days after the date of the notice, even if you no longer live or operate a business there and did not receive the fines.

This means fines will progress and enforcement action can be taken if you haven’t dealt with your fines, even if they were sent to your old address.

You can update your contact details for your driver licence and vehicle registration online at VicRoads.

If you have outstanding fines, are paying off fines in instalments, have asked for a payment extension or submitted any other type of application, you should also let us know if you’ve changed your address or contact details.
