Get your roadworthy certificate in the NT with mycar

Although the Northern Territory is one of the few states in Australia where you don't need a roadworthy certificate when buying or selling a car, you still need to make sure your car is drivable and safe on the road. New vehicles need to be evaluated on their fifth and tenth birthdays, and then each year following in order to maintain their registration.

That's where mycar comes in. We offer roadworthy certificate inspections for all makes and models, and our qualified team is dedicated to ensuring your car is in top shape. We offer a range of payment options, including Zip Pay, and all costs will always be given upfront.

What to expect when you bring your car to mycar

When you visit mycar to get your roadworthy, NT drivers can expect friendly service, expert assessors, and a thorough assessment. The Authorised Inspector will spend between two and four hours going over your vehicle and your digital certificate will be issued directly to the Motor Vehicle Registry on the day if your car passes inspection.

Your inspection will cost $59.40 (current as at August 2022 and subject to change) no matter how long the process takes, as this is a fixed government fee. This may vary depending on whether you are having a motorcycle, light vehicle or commercial vehicle inspected. If your car requires repairs, such as its cooling system, brake system, or other, our expert mechanics can help take care of that too.
