To transfer car ownership in QLD, do it within 14 days via TMR Online Services or at a Customer Service Centre—leave it longer and late fees say hello.
The seller provides a signed transfer and a current Queensland Safety Certificate for registered light vehicles; plates stay with the car, so no plate bingo.
The buyer lodges the transfer, pays the transfer fee plus vehicle registration duty (stamp duty)—amount varies by vehicle type and value—and updates their details.
Have the VIN, odometer, photo ID, and proof of address ready; CTP rides with the rego and you can change insurer at renewal.
If you’re not eligible online, use the paper form at a TMR centre; unregistered cars require a new rego, not a transfer.
Do a PPSR check to dodge financed lemons, and keep a signed receipt—future you will thank present you.
