Frequently Asked Questions about Roadworthy Certificates

  • A Roadworthy Certificate, often called an RWC, is a document issued by a licensed vehicle tester that shows your car meets the minimum safety requirements set by VicRoads. It confirms the vehicle is safe to be driven on public roads in Victoria

  • You need a Roadworthy Certificate when you sell a registered vehicle, when you transfer ownership to another person, or when you re-register a vehicle that has been unregistered. It may also be required if a vehicle is defected by police or VicRoads.

  • No. A Roadworthy Certificate is not a guarantee that your car is in perfect condition. It only confirms that your car is safe enough to drive on the road at the time of inspection. General wear and tear or non-safety-related issues may not be covered.

  • During a roadworthy inspection, the tester examines key safety components such as tyres, brakes, steering, suspension, seatbelts, lights, windscreen, and the structural integrity of the vehicle. Anything that affects road safety is included.

  • In Victoria, a Roadworthy Certificate is valid for thirty days from the date of issue. If the ownership transfer or registration is not completed within that period, you may need another inspection.
