Log in with Digital Identity
How to log into DoTDirect using your MyGovID.
You can now log in to DoTDirect using your Australian Government Digital Identity (MyGovID).
Can’t link your Digital Identity to DoTDirect?
You won’t be able to link your Digital Identity with DoTDirect if:
- the name and/or date of birth details on your Department of Transport (DoT) customer account does not match your Digital Identity account.
- you are unable to prove your identity by providing your:
- driver's licence and vehicle licence details; or
- DoTDirect username, password, and two-factor authentication.
If there is a mismatch between the name and/or date of birth on your DoT and Digital Identity accounts you will need to either:
- choose a different name in the myGovID app by selecting the name held against a verified identity document, or
- complete a Change of Personal details form and provide supporting documents to DoT.
