How long do blue slips last?

Quick question,

I got my blue slip on friday, but I need to wait til the finances are in for the green and rego.

How long do I have before the one I got on friday is invalid?

Cheers

3 months is my understanding.

agreed

28 days from what i remember

OK - I DEFINITELY know a pink slip lasts 3 months - not sure if it is 12 weeks or 3 months though

I am basing my comment on the fact they would be the same

ROSE!!!!.................:spin:

pink slips in NSW are 42 days and I'm fairly certain blueys are no different

Pretty sure they have never been that long
I coulda sworn it was only 28 days but here's one I had done on my car only a few months ago turns out it's 42 days :crazy:

Sweet. Mine didn't have rego when I got the blue done, so I wasn't sure if it would be different or not.

42 days is an odd number. Then again, it is the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything!

So if it is stated on Joels I wonder why it's not on yours.

You have 28 days to register it from the date on the blue slip Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Report (1075 form). 42 days is for a pink slip for rego renewals.

If you have the form there look on the left side under the heading fees paid in the box there is a Note: it tells you there.

28 days is correct,29 days and the RTA will send you for a new one.

Thanks, just found it in the fine print.

My blue slip is different to Joel's, it was in the fine print on the back of the unreg vehicle inspection report page.

Cheers everyone!
