Motor Vehicles Securities Register no longer available for searching
It is no longer possible to search the Motor Vehicles Securities Register (the MVSR).
Given that all security interests in motor vehicles are registrable at the Personal Property Securities Register (the PPSR), and that all pre-existing security interests should have been re-registered there, the PPSR should be a complete record of all registered interests in motor vehicles.
However, if more than one security interest over a motor vehicle was re-registered during the transitional period, it may not be clear from the PPSR which secured party has better priority. For this reason, we recommend that you retain copies of any previous certificates of registration issued in relation to the MVSR as proof of timing of any prior registrations.
