Personal Imports Option
Ownership of the vehicle

Applicants must satisfy each of the following ownership requirements. You must:

• own the vehicle when submitting the application; and
• have acquired ownership of the vehicle while overseas; and
• have owned the vehicle while overseas for a continuous period of at least 12 months. This is the ?qualifying period?. The qualifying period must have occurred immediately before you (permanently) arrived in Australia.

Use of the vehicle

The vehicle should have been available to you for use as transport. This means that the vehicle must have been available to be driven by you, at all times during the 12 month qualifying period. Evidence to establish availability would include that the vehicle is registered (in your name) and garaged (proximate to your residence) throughout the 12 month qualifying period, so that you could, if needed, drive the vehicle. In addition, evidence that you must have held an appropriate licence to drive the vehicle overseas would assist in confirming that the vehicle was available for use.
