There are three important dates:

• Expiry date: Your green slip and registration expire at midnight on the same date.
• Registration due date: Final date on which your registration payment is due.
• Commencement date: The day your green slip and registration commence.

The greenslips.com.au calculator uses prices on commencement date. For the calculator, you need to enter the commencement date.

The Year your vehicle was made (e.g., 2007) can be found on your registration papers or on the vehicle's compliance plate, usually found under your vehicle's bonnet.

Your vehicle's Make is its brand (e.g., Nissan, Mitsubishi) and can be found on your registration papers.
Your vehicle's Model is its name (e.g., Pulsar, Lancer).

If you cannot find your Vehicle Make and/or Model from the dropdown list, please select "Other" - located at the end of the Vehicle Make.

TIP: Typing in the first letter of the vehicle Make and Model will speed up searching through the dropdown list.

Note: Make and Model are not applicable (N/A) for vehicles older than 1991.

For some vehicles and insurers, prices differ based on the particular variant of a vehicle model.

To ensure green slip prices are accurate, select your vehicle model variant.

You can check your vehicle model variant details on your existing greenslip renewal notice or on your registration renewal notice.

If you are registered for GST and entitled to claim an input tax credit for GST, you will be issued a tax invoice green slip.

If you are claiming for GST, the cost of your greenslip will be different to the cost which would otherwise have applied.

Insurers are entitled to charge a loading between 6.5% and 7.5% where the greenslip purchaser intends to claim for GST.

The 'Never' may be selected if the vehicle is used 'rarely'. Rarely may mean:

• driving to and from school or day care
• driving on occasion to the shops or medical appointment
• driving somewhere to volunteer once a week

A blue slip is a check on the roadworthiness and identity of unregistered vehicles. A blue slip involves a more thorough check than does an eSafety check.

A blue slip will be required if your vehicle is unregistered or if your vehicle is being transferred from interstate.

To obtain a blue slip you will need to go to an Authorised Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Station (AUVIS).

One of the factors applied by insurers to determine greenslip prices is your insurance history.

Additional vehicle insurances are generally referred to as Comprehensive Insurance and Third Party Property Insurance.

Comprehensive Insurance generally covers damage to your vehicle, damage to other vehicles, damage to property and theft of your vehicle.

Third Party Property Insurance is generally cheaper and more limited than Comprehensive Insurance and generally covers only damage to other vehicles and damage to property.

Your greenslip only covers injuries to people. It does not cover any of the incidents covered by Comprehensive Insurance or Third Party Property Insurance.

Comprehensive Insurance and Third Party Property policy terms, inclusions and limitations vary from insurer to insurer. You need to check with your insurer to determine what is covered by your policy.

The age of the owner/registered operator at commencement of greenslip.

The age of the youngest driver of the vehicle at commencement of greenslip.

Same as "Owner's Age" if the owner/registered operator is the youngest driver.
