NSW.

not sure exactly what you mean.... but... this is my experience with selling/buying cars from interstate.
What you need is the transfer papers with details of seller/buyer, engine no, chassis/VIN no. etc. current roadworthy certificate.
With all the above you should be able to transfer easily. They may want to inspect the vehicle but usually not for a straight transfer.
If the car is not registered then the car will be inspected before registration is given.
This is the situation in Vic but you would have to check whether it is the same in NSW.

This is what the seller is saying
"1 year Victorian registration! this means that after it is registered you wont have t get it checked every year to reregister it. the only catch is
it has to be sold with a roadworthy certificate from victoria which i have but is only valid for 30 days. from then all rego can be done by post."

ah... ok ... so you will have to register it in victoria then... i'm not sure about the legal mumbo on residing in one state and having registered
car in another...
if you were to transfer it from vic to nsw rego you will get a refund from the vic rego anyway.. just depends how desperate you are to not have to get
roadworthy in NSW every year.

I think it's illegal to not change your rego over within 30 days of moving or something like that. You do not need a roadworthy to sell a car in
Vic. You need one to register a car or change over ownership.
If you don't have the car rego'd in NSW after you buy it, you run the risk of getting fined.

thanks people that is becoming clearer.
If you live in NSW then the car must be registered in NSW. Obviously some people ignore this a little bit ;-)
PurpleT3 - surely is not changing ownership selling it?
How much does a roadworthy certificate cost then?
Does that mean you have to put all faults right or can sell it with the fail sheet.

A roadworthy certificate costs about $50 for the inspection, getting all the faults rectified is where the real money is and could cost thousands. If
you buy a car without a roadworthy, you take on the expense of fixing all the faults before you can register it. if you buy one with a RWC, then the
seller has spent the money to fix the faults. This is why you will often see cars advertised at one price without RWC and a higher price with RWC.
The difference between the two is around what the repairs are estimated to cost.
Change of ownership usually involves selling, but not always. Some years ago my GF and I transferred ownership of a car between us, no sale involved,
but I needed a RWC to register it in my name.
As I said, in Vic you can sell a car with or without a RWC, but to register it in your name, you need a current RWC.

thanks mate that is really helpful and I think that last line sums it up. One last question and a RWC is known as a pink slip or a blue slip if it
hasn't been registered for a while is that right?

My work just sold a vic rego vehicle in NSW. We just returned the plates and got a refund on the vic rego. The new owner then got a blue slip in NSW
and registered it. |

Thanks yes Blue slip is the "hardest one" although there is a caveat that if no blue station is near then you can get a pink.
did - its not blue its the dreaded orange standard wheels;-)
Does victoria renew rego by post or do you have to have a RWC every year and a Victoria address doe anyone know

Rego by post or internet. No annual roadworthy check. Not sure about needing a Vic address.

Tassie it is similar. I am buying a car from NSW and as far as i understand the procedure is as follows.
1. You need the transfer papers, which you fill in when you want to register the car as per normal (I have 14 days + if work is needed for rego there
is extra provision)
2. Get a RWC or Inspection as it is called in Tas. (Here i does not matter if the car has been registered in another state it has to go thru
inspection)
3. Hand in the NSW plates to the Authority (DIER in Tas)
4. Register the car in Tas.
You will find you cant get new insurance for a NSW plated car at an interstate address. So your best either faking an address, i.e. a relative or
simply changing it over. In my case I will be changing it over.
