Before you can legally drive your car in Tasmania, you need to register the vehicle with the Tasmanian Government Transport Services

In Tasmania, a Pre-Registration Inspection (also referred to as 'Rego Check') is required when you:

• Transfer to Tasmania a car registered in another state;
• Register a vehicle converted from left-hand to right-hand drive;
• Re-register a vehicle whose previous registration expired or was cancelled more than three months ago;
• Re-register a vehicle that is recorded as repairable write-off

First, you need to make a booking for an inspection through an Approved Inspection Station, such as Launnie Automotive in Invermay.

In Tasmania, the cost of registration is determined by your vehicle type. You will also need to pay a fee and/or duty when transferring vehicle registration into another name (when selling/buying a car).

We can arrange for your number plates to be exchanged if transferring from interstate. If your vehicle doesn't pass the inspection, we can assist in making repairs, so you can pass the inspection.

For many, the rego stickers were a handy reminder for when the vehicle's registration is due. Now that they are phased out you can check online

If you are driving someone else's car or are in doubt as to whether the vehicle is registered, use the link above. It is an offence to drive, park or stand an unregistered vehicle on a public street, even if you are not the owner.
