If you’re selling or transferring a vehicle or purchasing one that does not yet have a safety certificate, you will need a RWC to complete a transfer ownership through the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads. If you don’t get a safety certificate, the Department of Transport will not be able to grant you a transfer of title for that vehicle and the car may become deregistered. A safety certificate is also required to re-register vehicles when registration expires.
