The State Government has announced that boat registration stickers will be phased out from
October 1, meaning boaties will no longer risk fines for displaying them incorrectly<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

July 8, 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boat registration stickers will come to an end on October 1, the same as car registration stickers which were phased out in 2014.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, the State Government announced it will be removing the requirement for vessels to display registration stickers.<\/p>\n

Acting Transport Minister Steven Miles said it made sense to end the need for boat rego labels after car stickers were phased out five years ago.<\/p>\n

“Boat registration stickers peel and fade because they are constantly exposed to harsh weather, and there are still offences associated with not having one properly displayed,” Mr Miles said.<\/p>\n

“That doesn\u2019t make sense and boaties have called for us to get rid of them, so we are.”<\/p>\n

Mr Miles said Maritime Safety Queensland and police will continue to enforce registration through vessel registration numbers on boat hulls.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We\u2019re getting rid of stickers but not registration requirements,” Mr Miles said.<\/p>\n

“Boat owners will still need to ensure their vessel is registered and registration renewal notices will be sent to them as usual before the due date.”<\/p>\n

According to TMR regulations all boats \u2014 including personal watercraft \u2014 with an engine of 3kW or more must be registered when they are on the water in Queensland.<\/p>\n

Transport and Main Roads will continue to provide boaties with registration information and tools to remind them of their registration expiry\/due date.<\/p>\n

Boaties can sign up to receive email reminders for their boat registration on TMR’s website<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

They can also check if a boat\u2019s registration is current on the web<\/b><\/a> or by downloading the Qld Rego Check App.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
