Transferring a vehicle in Victoria is about as thrilling as filling out your tax returns, but alas, it's necessary. First, both buyer and seller must complete and sign the transfer form, which you can grab from VicRoads or their website. Then, the buyer has 14 days from the date of purchase to lodge the transfer and pay the transfer fee, which ranges around $40 to $60 AUD. Don't forget, the vehicle must have a valid roadworthy certificate unless it's exempt.
You'll need to provide ID, the transfer form, proof of purchase, and payment to VicRoads, either online, by mail, or in person. Pro tip: get the paperwork sorted quickly or risk fines and headaches. For used vehicles, check listings on CarShowroom or Tradingpost for pricing and transfer tips.
