vehicle transfer victoria

In Victoria, transferring a vehicle is about as thrilling as queueing, but at least it’s simple: do it within 14 days of sale via your myVicRoads account.

The seller should lodge a Notice of Disposal, hand over a signed receipt with the VIN and odometer, and keep their toll tag; plates usually stay on the car unless they’re personalised.

The buyer lodges the transfer online, uploads a current Roadworthy Certificate (typically issued within the last 30 days), and pays the transfer fee plus motor vehicle duty.

No RWC? Then you’re looking at transferring it unregistered or getting the seller to sort one—no certificate, no registered transfer.

Double-check names, addresses and the VIN, because a typo can stall the whole show.

Once VicRoads processes it, you’re legit—now try not to “forget” the speed limits on the way home.
