Certificate of registration

A certificate of registration is a good way of proving you are the registered operator of the vehicle or proving where the vehicle is garaged.

You are not required to carry a physical copy of your certificate of registration while driving.

Finding your certificate of registration

Your certificate of registration is part of your registration renewal notice. You’ll find it in the green box on the second page of your notice.

Your renewal notice is sent out via email or mail about 6 weeks before your registration is due. You’ll also get a copy when there has been a change to your registration or number plate.

If you have previously received an email for your registration renewal, you can find a copy by logging into your myVicRoads account under the ‘Notification History’ section.

If you don't have a myVicRoads account and need a replacement registration certificate, you will need to buy a physical replacement certificate (External link) for $20.20. A replacement registration certificate may be issued free of charge if:

  • there has been a change of vehicle details (e.g. change of engine etc.)
  • the renewal notice has not been received and VicRoads has record of the notice being returned undelivered
  • the vehicle has been transferred to a new registered operator and the renewal was sent to the previous registered operator.

Registration stickers

VicRoads no longer produces registration stickers, therefore you do not need to display a registration sticker on your vehicle.

You can check if your registration is current using our registration check or by logging into myVicRoads.
