Registering a Vehicle with Conditional
Registration
Conditional registration is a registration
scheme for non-standards vehicles that have a
genuine need to access the road network but do
not comply with the applicable vehicle standards
as described in Schedule 1 of the
Road Transport (Vehicle
Registration) Regulation 2000.
A vehicle may be provided with conditional
registration in the ACT subject to certain
conditions. Conditional registration will only
be approved on an individual vehicle assessment
and if a standard approved road vehicle that can
perform the same function does not exist.
Examples of vehicles which require conditional
registration include
·
Large Lawnmowers;
·
Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) such as
Bulldozers or road construction vehicles
operating on a road within a defined work
area;
·
Oversize or over mass truck type vehicles
that require access permits such as Concrete
Pumpers or Cranes; and
·
Forklifts operating in a carpark area or a
shopping centre.
Conditional registration does not extend to
vintage, veteran or historic motor vehicles.
Requirements for ACT Conditional Registration
A vehicle can be registered with conditional
registration in the ACT subject to an individual
assessment with consideration of required road
access.
