When You Need a Roadworthy Certificate
You’ll need a Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) in a few common situations:
- Selling your car
- Transferring registration
- Re-registering a vehicle
- Clearing certain defect notices
An RWC confirms your car meets the minimum safety standards at the time of inspection.
It’s important to know — it doesn’t guarantee long-term mechanical reliability, just that your vehicle is safe to be on the road right now.
Keep in mind that some vehicles don’t require a roadworthy certificate.Find out more about the roadworthiness scheme.

Length of time a certificate remains current
An roadworthy is ‘current’ and usable for 30 days from when it’s issued to you. You can use the certificate more than once to register your car or for transfer purposes, as long as it’s within those 30 days.
Remember: Just because you have a roadworthy, it doesn’t mean your car will remain in a roadworthy condition for the whole 30 days from the date the certificate was issued.
Check if the part you’re worried about is on the guidelines for a roadworthy test in vehicle standards information 26 – roadworthiness requirements. Then, contact the tester and explain your concerns.
