What Is a Roadworthy Certificate?
A Roadworthy Certificate (sometimes called a safety certificate) is a legal document that confirms your vehicle meets the minimum safety standards set by VicRoads. You’ll need an RWC in Victoria if you are:
- Selling or transferring ownership of a registered vehicle
- Re-registering a vehicle that’s been off the road
- Transferring registration from interstate to Victoria
It’s not a full mechanical inspection — instead, it’s focused on key safety components that affect whether your vehicle is safe to drive. For full details of our RWC process, visit our dedicated RWC service page.

- Brokes
- Tyres and Wheels
- Steering and Suspension

What Happens If My Car Fails?
It’s common for some vehicles to require small repairs before they pass a roadworthy inspection. If your car doesn’t meet the requirements on the first check, we’ll give you a detailed written report explaining exactly what needs attention.
You then have 14 days to carry out the repairs and return for a re-inspection. In many cases, our workshop can complete the necessary repairs on the spot, saving you the trouble of visiting multiple mechanics.
How Long Does It Take and How Much Does It Cost?
Most Roadworthy Certificate inspections take 45–60 minutes, depending on your vehicle’s condition. The cost of an RWC can vary depending on the make, model, and overall state of your car.
At PAT Narre Warren, we keep our pricing fair and competitive, with no hidden surprises. You’ll always know what the inspection involves and what the costs are before we begin. For the most accurate information, we recommend giving us a call or booking through our RWC service page.
