$1124 for 12 months as a "caravan body" here so you're not doing so bad. ($294 for 3 months).

We left the OKA unregistered for 6 months each year when we were in Europe.
I recently re registered a trailer that had been unregistered for about 9 years. All done on line and instant.
Use our address and I will go you halves in the savings..............

Just over 1k to register a year.
Vehicle has to have a Roadworthy every year. However you can do rego for 3 months etc. So during wet season, you dont really bother. Just registering it for Dry.

Yes, can get 3,6,12 month rego in WA, but what is involved in re-establishing it if you take 3 months and let it lapse?

Where it dosnt seem fair is when our esteemed deputy premier Lisa Harvey just used $1.5 mil from that fund to bail out a rugby team who is really a business or when the bulk of the GST collected in this state goes east to bail out NSW and VIC, fees need to go up to compensate, so the solution is for all OKA owners to bring their vehicles over here put them over the pits change the rego to WA and pay the low fees but live over east and take advantage of what the best state has to offer and in return all these OKA's will be driving around advertising by way of rego plates WA its a win win

Not all bad though because two are permanently registered at an initial once off cost of $200 each and one is registered and insured only when I use it.

Different if you are on the road moving from state to state, but you do hear occasional stories about nsw police issuing pretty big fines as it is considered an unregistrred vehicle offense.

As for rich farmers (apart from moneybags Brett) the only ones over here are the Collins St types who've never done a days honest work in their lives.

From Qld Gov site "If you move to Queensland from another state or territory, you must get Queensland registration and a Queensland driver licence. You have 14 days to register your vehicle in Queensland and may be fined if you don’t."
NSW has very similar rules and I'd be surprised if any state doesn't. NSW says
"Vehicles kept or garaged in NSW are required to be registered in NSW. If not, they are considered to be unregistered and cannot be driven (or towed in the case of a caravan or trailer) on NSW roads. You should also be aware that substantial penalties apply if you drive an unregistered or uninsured vehicle.
NSW Police hold the view that interstate registered vehicles kept or garaged in NSW are not 'temporarily' in NSW and are therefore 'unregistered'. As such, if the operator of that vehicle holds a NSW driver’s licence or is resident in NSW, and drives or uses the vehicle on NSW roads, they may be issued with a penalty notice."
For an OKA it is $1,372 and 4 demerit points
As Clint said "do you feel lucky punk?"
So far so good.
