Transferring rego in WA is less epic than a Nullarbor crossing, but there are a few checkpoints.
Do it within 14 days via DoTDirect or at a Driver and Vehicle Services centre; you’ll pay a transfer fee plus motor vehicle licence duty based on the vehicle’s dutiable value.
The seller should lodge the Notification of Change of Ownership promptly, and you’ll need proof of identity, proof of purchase, and the vehicle details (VIN, plates, odometer).
No roadworthy is usually required for a WA-to-WA transfer, but unlicensed, defected or interstate vehicles can be sent for inspection before plates and paperwork are blessed.
Miss the deadline and late fees can apply—about as fun as a flat tyre in the rain—so get it done and enjoy motoring without the bureaucratic squeak.
