A couple of Kiwi's about to set off on the first of many trips - we have just purchased a van and tow combo in SA, and I'm needing some advice on registration. As we do not have a domiciled address in Australia are we able to register the vehicles and receive renewal notices etc via email or will we need to find someone/somewhere that can provide us with a 'fixed' address to register the rig to??
Can't wait to get underway - have extensive caravanning experience over here in NZ, and looking forward to fulfilling a dream we've had for many years.
I hope someone can point me in the right direction on this issue....
Many thanks in advance
Guy

See sections 20, 22 and 97A for some basic info. Licence should be OK but normally need residential address for registration (as compulsory third party{bodily injury} insurance linked to residency).
Maybe contact the department to get their perspective in writing ie email,,, see link below.
Hi, we, two pom's recently bought a motorhome in Australia and for the Rego you will need a garaging address, we got ours from the seller once you have a garaging address everything else is easy and all renewals can be done via email.

Thanks Baz - lot of info there... Looks like we'll have to find an address to use.
