I live in WA and I am purchasing a brand new caravan in NSW, so it won't be licensed in NSW (I will have a 5 day travel permit). As we intend to pick up the caravan and travel up the East Coast, is it possible to license the caravan in WA while we are interstate? Any advise would be much appreciated.
