In New South Wales (NSW), staying on top of your vehicle registration requirements is essential for both safety and legal compliance. One key aspect of this is the pink slip, an inspection report required for certain vehicles. Whether you're a seasoned driver or new to vehicle ownership, understanding how pink slip inspections work is crucial. The process is designed to ensure your vehicle meets safety standards, and it can be simple, fast, and convenient when handled by a licensed inspection station.
A pink slip is a common term used to refer to an eSafety check, which is a safety inspection report required for vehicles over five years old in NSW before they can be registered. The report verifies that your car is roadworthy and complies with NSW safety standards.
Once your vehicle passes the inspection, the results are sent electronically to Transport for NSW. This allows you to renew your registration online without having to submit paper documents.
If your vehicle is more than five years old, you’ll need to get a pink slip in NSW every year before renewing your registration. The inspection must be done at an authorised inspection station (AIS), which is licensed to perform eSafety checks.
Types of vehicles that commonly require a pink slip include:
During pink slip inspections, an authorised mechanic will check:
If your vehicle passes, the pink slip is valid for 42 days. If it fails, you’ll be given a Repairs Needed report. You then have 14 days to complete the repairs and return to the same inspection station for a free follow-up check.
