Stamp Duty Calculators

Motor Vehicle Certificates of Registration

This calculator gives an indication of the amount of stamp duty payable when you purchase a motor vehicle.

Stamp duty is calculated on the dutiable value of the vehicle, at a rate of $3.00 per $100.00 or part thereof.

-	In the case of an "arm’s length" transaction (see below), the dutiable value is the sale price of the vehicle including accessories.
-	If the purchaser has negotiated a discount such as a trade or fleet discount or the vehicle is not subject to GST, the dutiable value is the negotiated price.
	In any other case, the dutiable value is whichever is the greater:
	the vehicle’s market value including accessories at the date of the transaction, or
	the vehicle’s market value including accessories at the date of transfer.

An arm’s length transaction as a general rule is made in good faith between parties with independent interests (eg. between a dealer and a member of the public). Typically, the parties are not related and do not have any business connections.

For more information refer to the following brochures:
