When you register a trailer in Queensland you are required to have a valid Safety Certificate.<\/p>
This also applied if you are transferring the ownership of a trailer.\u00a0<\/p>
So what types of trailers are affected?<\/p>
Trailers (LT) Over 0.75 tonne to 3.5 tonne (ATM)<\/p>
Your trailer must pass the minimum safety standard for each of the following categories.<\/p>
However, you may be aware but not all trailers require Safety Certificates. For instance, when your trailer has an ATM under 750kg.\u00a0<\/p>
The Self Assessment form below is required in these cases.<\/p>

In order to pass the Safety Certificate Inspection, you may need to carry out repairs on the trailer.<\/p>
Queensland Transport allows you 14 days from the first inspection date to have the defects repaired.<\/p>
Firstly, contact our office when the repairs have been completed.<\/p>
Secondly, the examiner will check the repairs are completed to the minimum standard.<\/p>
If your trailer passes the second inspection, the Certificate will be issued.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
Many of the inspections completed now are online.<\/p>
However, if you have been issued a handwritten paper copy you will need to do the following.<\/p>
Most importantly, your copy of the Blue label card is to be attached to an obvious place on your trailer.<\/p>
This must be displayed if you have \u201cFor Sale\u201d, \u201cInterested\u201d or \u201cLike this\u201d on your trailer.\u00a0<\/p>
Consequently, it could result in a $560 on the spot fine from the Police or Queensland Transport.<\/p>
However no display label is required if you have been issued an online certificate.<\/p>
New Registration Application forms can be downloaded from Queensland Transport’s website.<\/p>

To register an imported trailer you will need to go through the following process.<\/p>
A VIN (Vehicle Idenification Number) needs to be issued by Queensland Transport and Main Roads as well as a Compliance plate purchase.<\/p>
(See our FAQ<\/a> for more compliance plate details)<\/p>
The trailer must also under go a HVRAS<\/a> measure up.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
