Caravan rego in Western Australia
For example, on WA's published rates, a 12-month renewal for a caravan with a 2,300kg tare (its empty weight) is $187.40, checked 29 October 2026.
WA charges $7.44 for every 100kg of tare, so a heavier van pays more.
How the 2,300kg example is made up
- $171.12 for 2,300kg at $7.44 per 100kg. WA rounds the tare up to the next 100kg.
- $6.60 prescribed fee. The $13.20 fee is halved on a standard renewal, which this figure assumes.
- $9.70 administration recording fee.
- The department rounds the total to the nearest five cents.
