In Victoria, selling a caravan does indeed require a roadworthy certificate, but don’t expect it to be as simple as ticking a box. The roadworthy certificate, often known as a 'certificate of roadworthiness', ensures the caravan meets safety standards to hit the road legally. Without it, you’re basically handing over a potential rolling death trap – not great for your conscience or your bank balance if things go pear-shaped.
Obtaining this certificate means the caravan must pass an inspection covering brakes, lights, tyres, and overall structural integrity. New caravans usually come with this sorted, but second-hand sellers should definitely get one sorted. For more details or to book inspections, ServiceCentral is your mate.
