ok need some help.... how do you go about transferring the rego say from my name to my fiances name as an example?

anyone know the cost of it in nsw??

cheers

I think you can add someones name for very little cost , but to change it over usually depends on the sale amount so just say you sold it to her for $1000 and the costs should only be around $100

Pretty sure that if the sale price is unrealistic the fee is charged on the market value of the car. How much it gets enforced I don't know but that's what I found when I looked into it.

If the rules are similar to QLD you should be able to transfer it to her name without stamp duties if you declare the car is a gift, then you should only have to pay the transfer fee.

I have just bought a car, NSW rega transfer fee is $95 plus stamp duty which is 3% of either the purchase price or market value which ever is greater!

But most of the people behind the counter wouldn't know the market value so you can usually put down a cheaper price as long as it's not too crazy, you wouldn't get away with a saying you bought a 2009 Falcon for $1500 for example.

The RTA are cracking down on this as it will cost them money. If your unrealistic with the price they may deman market value.

what is the real out laying for them to change over rego.. apart from them printing out a new rego sheet and the clerk entering in data. fair enough the transfer fee but 3% sale price!! feel sorry for anyone buying $100k+ cars

Ive been saying the same for personal plates and there BS annual fee.

As for most things automotive related, logic plays no part whatsoever. Just lube-up and hope for the best.

The RTA is a symbol of government stupidity and greed.
