Understanding Concessional Licensing
Concessional Licensing Fees
We ONLY offer Concessional Vehicle Licencing – Dept of Transport (DoT) Code 404
In Western Australia, the concessional registration of eligible Historic Vehicles is subject to arrangements negotiated between the Department of Transport and the Council of Motoring Clubs of WA. As an eligible member, the Mini Owners Club of WA is able to make concessional registration Code 404 available to its members.
Currently licensed vehicles within WA are NOT required to undergo an inspection prior to applying for the 404 concession. The owner simply takes the current licence papers, a copy of their club financial letter (form CMC1) and completed form E81 to any Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS) Centre. Note: Your signature must be witnessed – hence do not sign before attending the Licensing Centre. The counter staff can witness your signature on the E81.

Different types of Concessional Licensing
There is more than one way to get a reduced license fee for your old classic car. The table below provides a brief overview of the three most applicable, what the discount is and the conditions that need to be followed.
Please note that the Mini Owners Club of WA is registered with CMC and DoT for Code 404 concession vehicles only.
Code 404 is the best fit for our club. The aim is to uphold originality within reason, rather extreme mods and conversions.
