VicRoads-administered inspections carried out by a licensed tester — fast, thorough, and hassle-free.
A Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) is an official document issued by a VicRoads-licensed vehicle tester confirming that a vehicle meets minimum safety standards at the time of inspection. It is not the same as a full mechanical inspection — it is specifically focused on safety.
In Victoria, a roadworthy certificate is required when selling a registered vehicle, re-registering a vehicle with a defect notice, or transferring ownership of a vehicle. FS Auto is a licensed roadworthy testing station, and Frank conducts thorough, honest inspections to get you certified quickly.
Not sure if your vehicle will pass? Book a pre-roadworthy inspection first. We'll identify any issues that need fixing before the formal RWC — saving you time and avoiding a fail.
A roadworthy certificate is legally required in a number of situations in Victoria. Here's a quick breakdown:
In Victoria, a registered vehicle must have a current RWC before it can be sold.
If your registration has lapsed or your vehicle has received a defect notice, an RWC is required to re-register.
Transferring a registered vehicle to a new owner requires a valid RWC issued within 30 days.
Some owners book an RWC simply to confirm their vehicle is safe before a long trip or change of season.
