Registering a vehicle after a blue slip
Prepare the report, CTP insurance and registration paperwork for your Service NSW visit.
Check the report before you go
Keep the original report and check its date and vehicle details. If something looks wrong, contact the examiner before attending a service centre.
Gather the rest of the registration documents
Check the NSW application requirements for proof of identity and registration entitlement, CTP insurance and any existing plates. Requirements can vary with the vehicle and its history.
Confirm registration has been completed
Follow the service centre’s instructions for payment and number plates. Check that registration is active before using the car normally, and keep your receipt and paperwork.
