Confirm you can sell and that no finance is owing Empfohlen
Make sure you are entitled to sell the vehicle and that no money is owed on it. Buyers commonly run a PPSR search on the VIN, which shows if there is a security interest (money owing) and usually written-off and stolen status.

Get the inspection certificate your state requires Empfohlen
Some states require a certificate before the vehicle can change hands: Queensland requires a current safety certificate before disposing of a registered vehicle, and Victoria requires a roadworthy certificate issued within 30 days before the sale (with exemptions). Other states do not require one for a standard transfer; check your state below.

Complete the transfer or disposal paperwork with the buyer Gesetzlich vorgeschrieben Verkäufer und Käufer
Record the buyer's full name, address and licence details, the date of sale and the sale price, and have both parties sign where the state's form requires it. Most states let you do this online or on the form attached to the registration certificate.

Lodge the notice of disposal by your state's deadline Gesetzlich vorgeschrieben
Tell the transport agency you no longer own the vehicle: within 14 days in NSW, Victoria and the Northern Territory, and within 7 days in Western Australia and Tasmania. Until the agency records the new owner you can be held liable for the buyer's fines, tolls and camera-detected offences.

Remove toll tags and stop direct debits Empfohlen
Remove the e-tag and delete the vehicle from your toll account, and consider cancelling registration direct debits, so you are not billed for the buyer's use.
