Register a brand new vehicle

Introduction

When you buy a new car, truck or motorcycle, motor dealers will often organise the registration for you. If this is not the case, you can register the vehicle yourself at a Service NSW Centre.

You can also visit a service centre to register a trailer or caravan.

Note: If there's no record of you with Transport for NSW (TfNSW), you'll need to set up your customer number or driver licence number first.

What you need

• your proof of identity
• proof of registration entitlement
• an Authorised Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Scheme (AUVIS) report (blue slip)
  Note: Eligible new light vehicles do not require an AUVIS. An eligible new vehicle is a registrable vehicle which:
  • has never been registered
  • has a Register of Approved Vehicles (RAV) entry for the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
  • has a build date (month and year) on the RAV not more than two years prior
  • has an entry pathway sub-category on the RAV of ‘type approval’ (not concessional)
• compulsory third party (CTP) insurance
• your fee payment
• your concession details (if applicable)
• the PDF form – 'Application for Registration'.
