Can I renew my Green Slip term to 6 months?

If you have a light vehicle (i.e. vehicles with GVM less than 4.5 tonnes), you can choose to insure and register for either a 6 month or 12 month term. If you want a 6 month term, both the Green Slip and Registration need to be paid or completed within 21 days of the registration due date. This is called the ‘Use-by’ date and is shown on the Green Slip. If the Green Slip ‘Use-by’ date has expired (i.e. exceeded 21 days), then you can only register for a 12-month period, unless there are ‘extenuating circumstances’ for us to accept the late payment. If you have a 12 month policy already, you’ll need to contact us on 13 10 10 (Monday to Friday 8am-6pm, Saturday and Sunday 8am-4pm) to change it to 6 months.

How long does it take for my CTP Green Slip to go through to the RMS?

It depends on the method you use to pay for your CTP Green Slip . If you pay online, by phone, or at a GIO Agency, it will be sent to the RMS within an hour of payment. If you pay at an Australian Post Office, it will take up to 2 business days for payment to reach RMS.

How can I change my address?

Your CTP is directly linked to your vehicle’s registration. That means when you change your address with Service NSW , it will automatically update your CTP.
