Renewing NSW caravan rego when you are interstate

From NSW RMS
https://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/roads/registration/inspections/index.html

Generally, light vehicles more than five years old require a safety check (previously called a pink slip) before you can renew the registration. Light vehicles include:
* Trailers and caravans with an aggregate trailer mass of 4.5 tonnes or less (including those fitted with breakaway brakes, but not including those fitted with air or vacuum (breakaway) braking systems).

So if it's less than 5 years old you should get the rego renewal in the mail - make sure someone is checking for it. You can then pay online.

In Nsw you can renew regos either two or three months earlier with that in mind. Best go to an RTA or whatever they call it this week and talk to them. Michael

New vans don't need an inspection for 4? years.

I put this question to the then RTA some time ago when we were in a similar situation. You can get an inspection done by a licenced mechanic in the state you're in and send the report with your rego renewal to RTA. At the time it all had to be done by snail mail. Perhaps now they will accept a PDF report by email, would pay to check if that is important to you.

the following is straight from the RMS web Site
Safety check required when renewing your registration
Generally, light vehicles more than five years old require a safety check (previously called a pink slip) before you can renew the registration. Light vehicles include:

Passenger cars
Goods carrying vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Mass of 4.5 tonnes or less (without power-operated brakes)
All motorcycles
Trailers and caravans with an aggregate trailer mass of 4.5 tonnes or less (including those fitted with breakaway brakes, but not including those fitted with air or vacuum (breakaway) braking systems).

so unless your running Air brakes or Air vacuum breakaways on your caravan you should be ok
WHAT ? brakeaway system does the van have

it will be noted on your rego if it has to be inspected or not & you can look it up on the RMS web site

hope this helps

Hi Keith,

Your procedures are fully spelled out on this site.
However, if you need further information would it not be better to get it "directly from the horse's mouth" than rely on possibly outdated offerings?
To do that, call 137788 and ask your questions.
