Registering your Vehicle in New South Wales

Registering your vehicle can be a tiresome process made more so by the costs involved in the registration process and the many options one have while choosing an insurer. An important point to note here is that every insurer gives a quote which is competitive with respect to the market and hence a proper and thorough research can help you save some extra bucks.

In New South Wales there are 6 providers of CTP Greenslip Insurance. While all of them provide the same basic insurance cover, some of them also give the added benefit of driver-at-fault cover.

Renewing vehicle registration
