Licence Eligibility Order Reports Victoria

If the court has directed you to complete a Licence Eligibility Order assessment, Drink Drive Victoria is here to help. We make the process as straightforward and stress-free as possible, so you can focus on getting your licence back and moving forward.
What Is a Licence Eligibility Order?
A Licence Eligibility Order (LEO) is a formal assessment ordered by the court following a drink or drug driving offence. It's used as part of the information-gathering process to help determine whether you may have an underlying issue with alcohol or drug use, and whether further support or intervention is required before your licence can be reinstated.
A LEO is a structured, professional assessment designed to give the court a clearer picture of your situation so that the right pathway forward can be recommended. Having a drink or drug driving offence on your record doesn't automatically mean you have a substance dependency, and the LEO process recognises that.


Who Needs a Licence Eligibility Order in Victoria?
A licence eligibility order in Victoria is typically required for drivers who have been charged with a drink or drug driving offence and have been directed by the court to undergo an assessment before their licence eligibility can be considered. This may apply to:
-
First-time offenders with higher BAC readings
-
Repeat drink or drug driving offenders
-
Drivers whose offending behaviour may indicate problematic alcohol or drug use
-
Drivers seeking to progress their licence eligibility order application
If the court has directed you to complete a LEO assessment, it will be a required step in the process of having your licence returned.
How the Licence Eligibility Order Process Works
The LEO assessment is a confidential, one-on-one appointment with one of our qualified drug and alcohol professionals. During the session, we'll gather background information, explore the circumstances surrounding your offence, and assess your current relationship with alcohol and/or drugs.
The process is straightforward:
-
Book your appointment. Contact Drink Drive Victoria to schedule your LEO assessment at a time and location that suits you.
-
Attend your assessment. Assessments are conducted in a private, non-judgmental setting and typically take 45-60 minutes.
-
Report preparation. Following the assessment, a written report is prepared and submitted directly to the court for the Magistrate's consideration.
-
Court consideration. The Magistrate reviews the report and recommendations as part of your licence eligibility order application.
You don't need to prepare anything special, just bring your ID and be ready to have an open conversation.


Next Steps Toward Getting Your Licence Back
The LEO report is often one step in a broader journey toward licence reinstatement. Depending on the outcome and your individual circumstances, you may also be required to complete one or more of the following:
-
Drink driving course (for first-time offenders with a BAC below 0.150)
-
Drug driving behaviour change program (for first-time drug driving offenders)
-
Intensive drink driving course (for repeat offenders or those with a BAC of 0.150 or above)
-
Interlock exemption Victoria (if you may be subject to an alcohol interlock condition)
-
Other elements of the BCP program Victoria pathway as directed by the court
Our team can help you understand exactly what's required in your situation and make sure you're taking the right steps in the right order.
