Frequently Asked Questions

A safety certificate (also called a roadworthy or certificate of inspection) is an official QLD government document issued by a licensed AIS confirming a vehicle meets minimum safety standards. The official form is Form 35 — Certificate of Inspection.

You need a safety certificate when:

• Selling a registered vehicle in Queensland
• Re-registering a vehicle that's been de-registered
• Transferring registration in certain situations
