Get your original driver's licence translated to apply for a Canadian driver's licence.
In Saskatchewan, new residents with a valid foreign driver's licence can exchange it via SGI, but if not in English or French, a certified translation with affidavit is required to verify details like name, class, expiry, and restrictions. This ensures proper recognition of your driving privileges during the exchange.
1. Obtain a certified translation: Have your licence translated professionally with affidavit.
2. Gather documents: Include original licence, translation, ID (e.g., passport), legal status proof (e.g., PR card), and Saskatchewan residency proof.
3. Visit SGI: Attend an office in Regina, Saskatoon, etc.; book appointment.
4. Pass tests: Knowledge, vision, and/or road test as needed based on your country's standards.
5. Pay and receive: Translation fee from $59 CAD; get Saskatchewan Class 5 licence if approved.
Note: Exchange within 90 days of residency; foreign licence + translation valid during this period.
