• ​Pink Slip – A slip which is issued by auto mechanics, which certifies the road worthiness of your vehicle (sedans, utes, four wheel drives, etc but not Heavy Vehicles)
• Brown Slip – A slip which is issued by auto mechanics, which certifies the road worthiness of your heavy vehicle
• Blue Slip – A slip which is required when your vehicle is first registered in New South Wales, either a new vehicle or an interstate transfer vehicle. This is also required for vehicles whose NSW vehicle registration has lapsed for a period greater than 90 days.
• Green Slip – A slip which is issued by an insurer providing Compulsory Third Party insurance under the NSW CTP scheme

In today’s electronic age, the above slips serve precisely the same function as they did back in 1999 when introduced, however they are simply no longer colour coded, nor in hard copy.

Some insurers offer token cover for at fault drivers who sustain injury. More information is contained here on this subject.

CTP does not cover damage to your vehicle or damage to a third party’s vehicle. Motor Insurance provides the necessary property damage protection in the form of Comprehensive Motor Insurance or Third Party Property Damage Motor Insurance.

Insurers must file rates at least once a year. This is now done more frequently and is currently on average every four months. This means that insurers CTP prices will change every four months currently, on average.

One should, therefore, compare CTP Greenslip prices at each renewal to ensure their CTP renewal policy is still the most competitive in the market.

Aside from the At Fault Drivers add on covers offered by some insurers (read more about At Fault Driver Protect here) all CTP policies offer the same protection so price rather than cover is a significant factor in the decisions made by consumers as to which policy to purchase.

New vehicle registrations must be done by attending an RMS office and tendering the following:

• A pink slip if the vehicle requires an inspection certificate (generally vehicles over 5 years old)
• A CTP Greenslip noting the vehicles VIN number – these can be purchased here
• Funds to cover the Stamp Duty for your vehicle purchase
• ​ Unfortunately, new vehicle registrations cannot be done online. You must attend an RMS office in person with the necessary documentation.

If your vehicle qualifies for conditional registration and uses a public road or road related area (i.e. car park) then your conditional registration automatically comes with CTP. You do not have to purchase a separate CTP policy for a  vehicle. Simply by registering your conditionally registered vehicle, you are covered for CTP.
