Light vehicles

Here's how dealers can register a new light vehicle using myVicRoads partner account.

These vehicle types are categorised as light vehicles:

  • a car with a gross vehicle mass (GVM) of 4.5 tonnes or less
  • a goods-carrying vehicle with a GVM of 4.5 tonnes or less
  • a special work vehicle.

Register a new light vehicle

  • Log on to myVicRoads partner account and click on 'Register a light vehicle'
  • Obtain evidence of identity documents.
  • Record the correct garage address to calculate the correct registration amount.
  • Make sure that the registration date is the date when the light vehicle will be delivered to the customer.
  • The year of manufacture and the compliance plate date are taken from the RAV date of entry. For example, for the entry 01/08/2021 the year of manufacture is 2021 and the compliance plate date is 08/2021.
  • The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) must be 17 digits long. All compliant vehicles manufactured after 1989 must be stamped with a unique 17-digit alpha-numeric vehicle identification number (VIN) and have a compliance plate. 
  • Enter the complete engine number including the prefix.
  • Select ‘multiple’ if the vehicle has more than one fuel type.
  • The manufacturer’s GVM (kg) field is only applicable for goods-carrying vehicles.
  • Select the correct registration code. Refer to the relevant codes and fees section below for more information.
  • Select the correct TAC code. Refer to the TAC for more information. 

When the vehicle has been registered on the myVicRoads partner account, mail these documents to VicRoads in the yellow pre-paid envelope at the end of the week (Friday):

Keep a copy of all documentation at the dealership for auditing purposes.

Before you can use your vehicle on a road or public space, it must be registered and number plates attached.

For extra help, go through the new registration user- based scenarios (External link).
