中國駕照可以在澳洲租車自駕遊嗎？
旅遊（VISA600）等臨時簽證持有者使用海外非英語駕照在澳洲開車的法律要求，各州不盡相同。租車公司沒有義務來審查妳駕車是否合法。不少人利用自行翻譯件或者公證件從租車公司租到車子，就以為這樣做是可行的，但殊不知這是違法的，出了事麻煩就大了。
大傢經常自駕的墨爾本和大洋路所在的維多利亞州要求如下：需持NAATI的翻譯員（或澳洲領事館）翻譯件才能在合法開車，或持有合格的國際駕照。持中國公證翻譯件在維州開車可能不被認可！自己翻譯更加不行。

If your licence is in a language other than English, it must be accompanied by an English translation. The translation is at your own cost. VicRoads only accepts translations completed by: a NAATI accredited (any level) translator an appropriate consulate in Australia a valid and current International Driver Permit. Note: An international driving permit is only valid if it: complies with the UN convention for International Driving Permits, and is issued by the country the overseas driver licence is issued in; and is accompanied by a current overseas driver licence from the same country the permit was issued in. An International Driving Permit is only acceptable as a translation of a driver licence if it shows the first issue date of your overseas licence, licence number and expiry date of your licence. If this information is not displayed on the permit you must provide an acceptable translation as explained above.
悉尼所在的新南威爾士州的要求如下：持有英文翻譯件或者國際駕照。 When driving in NSW you must carry your overseas driver licence. Your licence must be written in English or, if the licence is not in English, you must either carry an English translation or an International Driving Permit.

就是說新南威爾士州對駕照的翻譯機構沒有強行要求。中國公證件或許是可以用的（不排除有更細致的規定不允許使用公證件）。
阿德萊德所在的南澳州要求如下： NAATI翻譯件或者是領事館、移民局的翻譯件。 Driver’s licence translations will only be accepted if they are: an original document (photocopies, faxes and certified copies are not acceptable) from a consulate office in Australia, signed by a consulate officer, and on official consulate letterhead, or authorised by the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI). Translations are also acceptable if they have been provided either directly by or with the endorsement of the South Australian Government Interpreting and Translating Centre or interstate equivalent or the Commonwealth Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC).
黃金海岸和大堡礁所在的昆士蘭州要求如下：需經認可的翻譯件。關於“認可”，官方給出的是NAATI。 If your licence is in a language other than English, you should carry a recognised English translation of it when you are driving. You should show this translation to police when you have to show your driver licence.

西澳洲的要求如下：
官方鏈接： http://www.transport.wa.gov.au/licensing/20668.asp
需持有國際駕照或者認可的翻譯件。關於“認可”，官方解釋是領事館或者NAATI叁級或以上翻譯員翻譯。 If your overseas licence is not in English, you must carry an International Driving Permit or an approved English translation of your licence (if you have either of these) with you when you drive. 見：http://www.transport.wa.gov.au/mediaFiles/licensing/LBU_DL_B_RideSafeAll.pdf 第46頁
Holders of non-English driver’s licences must produce an approved translation along with their current valid driver licence. Translations will only be accepted from:
the appropriate Consulate; or
accredited Translator, Advanced Translator or Advanced Translator (Senior) level translators approved by the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI).
Note: Faxes and photocopies of licence documents are NOT acceptable. （傳真和復印件不可用）

綜上所述，關於翻譯件，最穩妥的做法是： 持NAATI叁級或以上翻譯員的翻譯件。淘寶上NAATI翻譯駕照，80-100元。請自行到NAATI網站驗證譯員資格真假。
注意：
1、租車以及駕駛途中需要攜帶蓋翻譯員章的原件以及駕照原價。
2、永居簽證（PR）持有者持海外駕照駕駛有另外的時限要求，不在本文討論範圍內。 另：新西蘭認可中國駕照的公證翻譯件，但不認可澳洲NAATI翻譯件。
