Registration
One of the perks of a novated lease is including your vehicle registration. Learn how the process works for new and used cars.
Back to Knowledge Base1How your car rego works
As the car owner, the registration renewal notice will always be sent directly to you approximately one month before the expiry date (this may vary by state). If you have changed your address, please verify with your state's registration authority to ensure they have the correct address on file.
2What to do if you novated a brand new car
For a new car, the first 12 months of registration is usually included in the vehicle's "drive away price". About 11 months after your lease commences, you'll receive a renewal notice.
Once you receive the renewal notice, you have two options:
1. Direct payment by us: Send us a copy of the renewal notice two weeks prior to the due date, and we'll pay the relevant authority directly for you.
2. Reimbursement: Pay the renewal fee yourself and request a reimbursement from us for the amount paid.
3What to do if you novated a used car
If your novated lease is for a pre-loved car and the registration is due for renewal within the first few months of your lease, you might not have sufficient funds accrued in your account to cover the cost. In this case, you'll need to cover the upfront cost, but we will reimburse you once your account has accrued sufficient funds.

Please note that NSW drivers will be required to make payment for their Compulsory Third Party Insurance directly. CTP insurance often requires you to provide information about your driving history, which can influence the cost of the insurance based on your driving record. Once purchased, please forward the documentation along with a completed expense claim form to us for reimbursement. Alternatively, you can submit this reimbursement claim via the online client portal.
