In WA, selling a car is blissfully straightforward: no routine roadworthy required, just a clean conscience and properly filled forms.
Record the buyer’s details, issue a receipt, remove your e-tag, and lodge a Notice of Disposal/transfer online via DoTDirect (or the paper form) promptly after the handover.
The buyer pays the transfer fee and stamp duty; you keep your proof of sale and let the Department of Transport know so fines and speed-camera love letters don’t chase you.
Hand over both keys, the owner’s manual and service history, and make sure the VIN and rego match what’s on the paperwork.
For payment, cleared funds only—bank transfer, bank cheque or PayID; if someone suggests gift cards, you’ve met a comedian.
