Bellie Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Hi all Just wondered if anyone could help? We arrived in Perth on Monday and are in the process of buying a vehicle. We have put a deposit down yesterday on a private sale and are picking it up on Monday. Will we need to provide proof of address for the rego? A friend of a friend has said that we can use their address but obviously we will not have any proof of living there. When we were in Australia a few years ago we just went to the local office with the owner of the vehicle and transferred it there and then without proof of address, although that was in NSW and I know it differs between states. I have looked at the transfer form but it appears we have to post it. Can we just go into our local office and show passports etc? Thanks Bell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tisme Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 The seller of the vehicle keeps and sends in the green copy of the transfer papers, you keep the pink copy and send or take it into your local Licensing centre. You do not need to prove address, you can use your friends address, the bill of transfer and new rego papers with your name on them will arrive at your friends, just put in a change of address when you have your own permanent address. No passport is required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
