how do i transfer my rego to a family member in qld?

Easy as a Sunday snag, but with paperwork: you’ll both need to transfer the registration with Queensland TMR within 14 days. Ensure there’s a current Safety Certificate (seller’s job for most light vehicles), then complete the transfer online (if eligible) or at a TMR service centre with the forms, ID, odometer reading and vehicle details. The buyer pays the transfer fee and usually vehicle registration duty (even for gifts), unless a specific exemption applies. Plates generally stay on the car in QLD, but custom plate shenanigans are your call. Keep copies/receipts, because nothing ruins family dinner like a speeding fine for a car you don’t own anymore.
