You will need this permit if you intend to use an unregistered vehicle on a public road.
An unregistered vehicle permit (UVP) may be issued in any circumstances where it is impractical or unreasonable to have the vehicle registered during the period of the permit.
UVPs are intended to cover situations such as:
- preparing an unregistered vehicle for registration
- moving a vehicle from place to place on a one-off basis
- using heavy earthmoving equipment which need to cross or operate on public roads in the course of construction work and cannot meet registration requirements
- using a rally vehicle on the road
- using a carnival float on the road.
Please note, you cannot use an unregistered vehicle permit for social or domestic purposes.
