Applying to register an unregistered vehicle
If the vehicle comes from a licensed motor dealer:
The dealer will tell you what you need to do. Most dealers are
authorised to check your identification on behalf of Roads and
Maritime. Show proof of your identity to the dealer.
To register the vehicle:
If the vehicle does not come from a licensed motor dealer:
You need to have the vehicle inspected and identified. Most
vehicles can be taken to an appropriate Authorised Inspection
Station (AIS) or Authorised Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Station
(AUVIS), but some must be presented at special motor registries
where inspections are done. Please call Service Now on 13 77 88
for information about where you can get your vehicle checked. If
your vehicle is inspected and identified at an AIS/AUVIS, the
examiner should complete the vehicle details on this form and give
you an inspection report.
Proof of your identity;
Roads and Maritime copy of your compulsory third party
insurance certificate;
The inspection report;
An original receipt for the vehicle, which clearly shows your
name, the seller's name, address and signature, the date you
purchased the vehicle; how much you paid for it; the registration
number; the VIN or chassis number;
Evidence of the vehicle's previous registration;
The old number plates if still in your possession.
You will need to go to a service centre or send an authorised
representative. If you send a representative you must fill in the
Representative Authority on this page. If the vehicle is being
registered in the name of a corporation, the Representative
Authority must be filled in. For a company, the Director or an
authorised delegate must complete and sign the Representative's
section. In the cases of an incorporation association, it is the public
officer who must sign. In all cases, the authorised representative
must provide proof of their identity.

must also indicate the Nominated Configuration Code at question

Stamp duty charges:
Stamp duty is collected by Roads and Maritime on behalf of the
Office of State Revenue when registration is issued to a different
person or corporation. Stamp duty is based on the market value of
the vehicle or the price you paid, whichever is greater. Stamp duty
is calculated at $3 per $100, or part of the vehicle's value.
For passenger vehicles valued over $45,000 with seating for up to 9
occupants, including: a sedan, station wagon, coupe, convertible,
four wheel drive vehicle with seats and windows, two wheel drive
panel van with seats and windows, three wheel car, forward control
passenger vehicle, small bus, motor home, or snow vehicle the rate
of stamp duty is $1,350 plus $5 per $100, or part, of the vehicle's
value over $45,000.
You can use this method to calculate the amount of stamp duty
payable for your vehicle, or you can use the Office of State
Revenue's stamp duty calculator at osr.nsw.gov.au
Note:
Except for heavy trailers over 4.5 tonnes GVM, if the vehicle you
have is currently registered interstate, or has expired interstate
registration, you must provide evidence that you have paid stamp
duty in the State in which the vehicle was previously registered.
You must provide a current certificate of registration. If the
certificate of registration has been lost, a service centre can
