Introduction

You'll receive a renewal notice for your motor vehicle recycler licence a month before the expiry date. You can then apply online to renew your licence before it expires. 

You can apply for a 1, 3 or 5-year licence.

To find your motor vehicle recycler licence number and details, visit Verify NSW.

What you need

  • your licence number
  • your renewal number (as shown on your renewal notice), or your full personal details
  • your fee payment.

How to renew

  1. Select the 'Renew online' button.
  2. Follow the prompts to renew your licence.

If you miss the renewal deadline

  • If you did not renew on time but the licence is within 3 months from its expiry date, you may be able to make an application to restore it. This can be done at a Service NSW Centre.
  • If your licence has expired more than 3 months, you'll need to apply for a new licence to be re-issued.
  • You cannot trade until your new licence is issued.

Payment methods

You can review transaction payment options on our payment methods page.
