Introduction
Vehicle registrations that have expired but are within 3 months of the expiry date, can still be renewed. The vehicle is registered from the day the payment is made, but there's no extension of the expiry date.
If the registration expired more than 3 months ago, you'll need to re-register the vehicle.
Note: If an unregistered vehicle is parked on a road or road-related area and the registration is more than 15 days overdue, the Police can seize the number plates. If this occurs, the vehicle will need to be re-registered.
What you need
- the PDF form – 'Application for Registration'
- your proof of identity
- proof of registration entitlement (if you purchased the unregistered vehicle)
