road worthy certificate victoria cost

In Victoria, a Certificate of Roadworthiness isn’t a fixed-price sausage roll; licensed testers set their own fees.

Expect roughly AUD $180–$250 for a typical passenger car (some anywhere $150–$300), motorcycles around $100–$160, and more for older, modified, or heavy vehicles.

If it fails, re‑inspection fees (often $50–$100) can apply, and repairs are extra—naturally.

The certificate is generally valid for 30 days from issue for transfer/sale, and you’ll need it for most registration transfers.

Call a few local testers—prices vary by suburb, vehicle condition, and how many surprises your pride and joy is hiding.
