What are the Uber driver requirements in Australia?
The regulations regarding Uber driver requirements in Australia have small differences in each state, but the process is more or less the same, regardless of where you live in the country.
Here’s what you need to get started with Uber:
To be at least 20 or 21 years old (depending on the state)
An Uber-approved car
A full AU driver’s licence, issued in your state - see more on Uber licence requirements
A special driver’s licence or accreditation that allows you to transport passengers
VEVO check - proof of your right to work in Australia
What are the Uber car requirements in Australia?
Uber inspects every single car before signing them up to their platform, and their requirements are getting stricter by the minute as the law requires higher and higher standards in passenger transport. Here are the requirements that apply to all Uber vehicles in Australia:
registered in the state where you want to drive it
have four independently opening doors
have at least four passenger seats with seatbelts, and no more than eight seats
have working windows and air conditioning
ANCAP 5-star rated
no damage or missing parts
no commercial branding.
Furthermore, even if it’s not an official requirement, the best cars for Uber also have generous legroom, luggage space and a good fuel economy. Lately, many drivers switched to hybrid or fully-electric cars for on-demand driving, for the benefits and lower running costs they offer. If you’re thinking about making the switch, learn how much fuel a hybrid car saves or how much it costs to charge an electric car in Australia.
What are the car requirements for each Uber ride type?
In Australia, there are several Uber service types available - UberX, Uber XL, Uber Comfort, Uber Premier, Uber Assist and Uber Pet. All Uber cars have to meet the standard requirements stated above and each service comes with additional eligibility criteria.
What car insurance do I need to drive for Uber?
In order to drive for Uber, your car needs to be CTP-insured in the state you’ll be driving. It must also be insured for a minimum of third party property damage and you have to be the insured driver. The cost of rideshare insurance generally depend on various factors that are unique to you, such as your gender, age, car type, driving history, and even where you park your car at night.
All Splend cars are CTP-insured and you are nominated as the insured driver, ensuring both you and your subscription car are covered.
What are the steps to become an Uber driver in Australia?
If you meet the eligibility criteria and want to start driving with Uber, here are the steps you need to follow.
1. Sign up online
The first step is creating a driver account and signing up on Uber website. You can sign up here.
2. Upload your documents
To become an Uber driver, you need to upload the following documents:
Driver licence
ID, Passport or birth certificate
Vehicle registration
Driving record
Background check
Profile photo
TIP: Upload scans of the original documents, not photocopies and make sure all required details are visible.
3. Get a vehicle inspection
Last, but not least, your car needs a roadworthy certificate before you start driving it for Uber. Vehicle requirements for the car inspection vary each state, so make sure to check them beforehand.
4. Start driving
After your application has been approved by Uber, all you need to do is start using the Uber Driver app to get ride demands, get on the road and start earning.
How long does it take to become an Uber driver?
If you already have a full AU driver’s licence and the minimum experience necessary, it can take 3-7 weeks to start driving Uber.
Your application for one of the special licences mentioned above usually takes 2-6 weeks to process and approve, depending on the state you live in. Once you have that, you can sign up to Uber via the Uber Driver app by uploading the required documents, which takes a further 1-3 days to approve, and around 7 days to complete the security check.
