Please read the terms and conditions before making your appointment.

Eligibility

To register a light trailer in your personal name:

Be at least 17 years old.
The trailer has to weigh 750kg or less (ATM).

To register a light trailer in the name of a company or incorporated association:

A company needs to provide an Australian Company Number (ACN) or Australian Registered Business Number (ARBN) to be eligible.
Incorporated associations will not have an ACN or ARBN but may be incorporated in a number of ways e.g. through an Act of Parliament or by Royal Charter. They may include organisations such as hospitals, municipal councils or trade unions.

Trailers can't be registered in the name of an unincorporated group. If the trailer's owned by an unincorporated body, multiple people, or an emergency response organisation (e.g. the SES or CFA), an individual can be nominated as the registered operator.

Bring to your appointment:

A completed light trailer registration form (This form will also show you how to measure your trailer properly).
Your evidence of identity.
Evidence of Victorian garaged address.
If someone else is registering the vehicle on your behalf, they will need to provide an original and signed Authority to act as an agent form.
Appropriate tools to remove your old number plates and put the new ones on. They'll need to be fitted to your vehicle before you leave VicRoads. Note that screws won't be provided with your new number plates.
Trailers manufactured from 1 July 1989 require a trailer plate to be permanently affixed to the trailer in a position where it may be readily examined (see Trailer compliance plate & VIN, under section Trailer size).
If you're converting your registration from interstate, bring the interstate number plates. We'll safely destroy them and give you an official receipt that says they've been returned.
Payment for required fees. To check the cost of registering your trailer, see registration fees. A number plate fee is also applicable.

Trailer plates & VIN

Trailers manufactured from 1 July 1989 need a trailer compliance plate to be permanently affixed to the trailer in a position where it may be readily examined. See Trailer compliance plate & VIN (under section Trailer size) for more details about this.

Trailers also need a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) or chassis number. This number needs to be stamped, embossed, or otherwise permanently marked on a substantial part of the trailer's frame or chassis.
