My registration is more than 3 months overdue, what do I have to do?

If you're wanting to renew your vehicle's registration that has lapsed, you'll need to:

  • Purchase a CTP Green Slip without the registration number listed. This is known as an Original Registration
  • Complete a Vehicle Identity and Safety Check (formerly Blue Slip). Learn more about vehicle inspections and driving unregistered

Please note that the RMS will need the hard copy of the Original Registration. You can obtain this from your local NRMA branch
