how long does a rwc last in qld

In Queensland, a Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) isn’t like a fruit with an expiry date, but more like a snapshot of your car’s current health. An RWC is valid for 42 days from the date of issue, giving you a neat six weeks to sell or transfer your vehicle.

Remember, it only certifies that your vehicle met minimum safety standards on that particular day—no guarantees it’ll stay that way. So, if you’re buying or selling, always check for the latest RWC. For more nitty-gritty, have a squiz at ServiceCentral or CarShowroom.
