Importing a car from interstate to South Australia
Purchasing a car from interstate to S.A South Australia
I recently found I could save $5000 on a can which costs $20,000 here in Adelaide by purchasing it from W.A. Here is my process with a used 2015 Mitsubishi ASX at $15000 in June 2017
The breakdown on costs.
$350 Dealer shipping charges (negotiable)
$45 One day temp rego S.A.
$22 New number plates
$580 Stamp duty (different for every car I think)
$720 1 year S.A. registration (Different for every car)
So the cost of importing is a grand total of $417 but if you manage to get the dealer to ship it for free it’s only $67 and 1 day of running around.
Well worth it for 5k.

- Call the dealer and have him take more pictures of the vehicle and email them to me. Tires, carpet etc, lots of close ups.
- Email me the purchase documents which I signed scanned and emailed back.
- EFT the full value of the vehicle to them.
- They ship the car the next day unlicensed. This means they cancel the registration and remove the number plates.
- The day it arrived in S.A. I got a call to pick it up from Gawler?? Miles away. Get online to Eyzreg and get a day permit for the vehicle $45. Print out the temp rego. http://www.sa.gov.au/topics/driving-and-transport/ezyreg
- Go pick it up and drive to Regency park or Lonsdale to have them check it out. No appointment necessary just wait in line.
- Drive to the motor registration office ”Services SA” and give them all the documents you have. They will charge you a bunch of money and give you your number plates.
- Screw the new number plates on and you’re done.
