How much does it cost?
Use our fee calculator (on the right-hand side) to find out how much it costs to register your vehicle.
Here’s what you pay for:
- standard registration charge
- number plate fee
- Transport Accident Commission charge
- motor vehicle duty fee
You don’t have to pay motor vehicle duty if you’ve got evidence that your vehicle’s already been registered in your name in Australia.
Can I use previous number plates?
Using general issue plates
You can re-use general plates on the same vehicle when registering but you’ll need to pay a fee that gives you the rights to the plates (as long as they’re not already owned by another person or company).
Using custom plates
Let us know at the appointment if you want to put custom plates on. If the plates have been on another vehicle before, you’ll need to pay a plate assignment fee.
Other vehicles
