The balance on your old card will be transferred to the new one as part of the replacement process, but may take up to 24 hours to appear on your new myki depending on your situation.
If your myki has a negative balance, you will need to top up to a positive balance as part of the replacement process.
Please note, lost or stolen registered myki cards cannot be replaced on the spot. Unregistered myki cards that are lost/stolen cannot be replaced.
In order to obtain a replacement myki at a ticket window you must provide station staff with your expired myki, or myki that has stopped working.
*On the spot replacement at V/Line stations will be available progressively as myki begins operating on each commuter line.
