Okay thanx for all your help guys If anyone is interested in the future, this information came from the RTA website Second-hand vehicles currently or previously registered interstate To register a second-hand vehicle that is currently or was previously registered interstate, you will need to attend a motor registry in person and provide: * Proof of your identity or, if registering the vehicle in the name of a company or organisation, proof that the company or organisation is a legal entity (see related link above right). * A representative’s authority if the vehicle is being registered in the name of a company or other organisation. For a company, the Director or an authorised delegate must complete and sign the Representative’s section on the Application for Registration form or provide a letter of authorisation on company letterhead. In the case of an incorporated association, the public officer must sign. In all cases, the authorised representative must provide proof of their identity. A representative’s authority may also be supplied for new vehicles registered in the name of a person. * A representative’s authority cannot be supplied if you are registering the vehicle in the name of a person, you must attend the motor registry yourself. If the vehicle is being registered in joint names, one person may authorise the other to attend on their behalf (as long as the person who is not attending is recorded on the RTA computer system). * Proof of acquisition (eg a receipt for purchase of the vehicle, certificate of registration signed by the previous registered operator/s of the vehicle, or the previous certificate of registration in the same name if coming from interstate). * Proof of your residential address (see related link above right). * A valid Compulsory Third Party insurance policy – also known as a green slip - in hard copy format with the number plate section blank (not required for trailers). * Your interstate number plates – you’ll have to surrender your interstate plates before you’ll be given NSW plates. * An inspection report – also known as a blue slip – from an Authorised Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Station (AUVIS). If you live in a remote area and there is no AUVIS available, you can get a pink slip from an Authorised Inspection Station (AIS) instead of a blue slip (for Authorised Inspection Station fees, see Vehicle Inspectors Bulletin 18 available from the related link above right. You should contact the RTA on 13 22 13 if you are unsure of the type of inspection report required). * A completed Application for Registration form (see RTA Forms at the bottom of this page). * Evidence of eligibility for any pensioner or other concessions (see related links to Pensioner concessions and Apprentice registration rebate above right). * An engineer’s certificate if the vehicle has been modified beyond the ‘owner-certified’ level or is an Individually Constructed Vehicle (ICV). * Evidence of repair if the vehicle has been a repairable write-off (eg letters or receipts from repairers and a written off vehicle report from AUVIS). * Payment for registration, including registration fee, motor vehicle tax (or national heavy vehicle charges as applicable), stamp duty if applicable plus the applicable number plate fee. All vehicles established for registration (including interstate and imported vehicles) may be selected for an additional inspection by the RTA's Vehicle Identification Inspection Unit (VIIU). You will be notified at the time of registration if your vehicle is selected.
