Heavy Vehicle Registration Assessment Scheme (HVRAS)

CLOSED

From 1 July 2026, we no longer accredit individuals to perform pre-registration inspections under HVRAS. However, individuals previously accredited under HVRAS may continue to undertake the necessary pre-registration inspections they previously performed if a registered operator or vehicle manufacturer requires assistance in completing their registration forms.

Individuals will no longer need to be accredited to provide this assistance, and registered operators can choose to complete the forms themselves.

Transitional arrangements from 1 July 2026.

  • Vehicle inspection sheets previously used by HVRAS accredited persons will continue to be used for pre-registration inspections.
  • Amended versions of these inspection sheets are now available.
  • Registered operators and vehicle manufacturers can complete the relevant form themselves or seek assistance from a representative which may include a previously accredited HVRAS provider.
  • Guidance material is available for customers and representatives to reference.

We will soon transition to a new form to replace the existing inspection sheets with clear, stepped out guidance on measuring for customers. More information about this change will be provided soon.

We thank everyone that has been involved with HVRAS over the years and appreciate your efforts to move the industry forward.
