To check WA rego, use the WA Department of Transport’s free Vehicle Licence search with the number plate to view current status and expiry.
If you’ve only got the VIN, run a PPSR check (national) to confirm finance owing, write‑off and stolen status, then get the plate from the seller and cross‑verify on the WA check.
Handy when you’re eyeing a used car on Tradingpost and don’t fancy surprises at renewal time.
Always make sure the VIN on the car matches the paperwork; if the details don’t line up, walk away faster than a roo spotting a Hilux.
