Imported and complied for Victorian streets
If this is your first time importing a personal vehicle, the volume of requirements can feel overwhelming compared to how straightforward the car itself might be.
We cut through that by telling you exactly where your vehicle sits in the process and what's left before a compliance plate can be issued, no vague "it depends", just a clear list of what's required for your specific import.
If you're still waiting on your vehicle to land, get in touch early; sorting out likely compliance issues before it arrives can save real time once it's here.

FAQs
-
A VASS certificate is a document issued by a Vehicle Assessment Signatory Scheme (VASS) engineer in Australia. This certificate confirms that a vehicle modification or custom build complies with the relevant design and safety standards. It is typically required when a vehicle has been significantly modified or built from scratch, such as for hot rods, custom cars, or imported vehicles, to ensure it meets Australian safety and design regulations.
The VASS certificate is important for getting a vehicle registered, as it verifies that all changes made to the vehicle are safe and legal.
