Online (fastest)
Pay at the official TMR renewal service with your registration number and a Visa or Mastercard. Instant confirmation, available 24/7. A small credit card surcharge applies to card payments.
BPAY
Use the biller code and reference printed on your renewal notice to pay from your internet banking. No card surcharge. Allow a business day or two for processing before the due date.
Phone
Call 13 23 80 and pay by card through TMR's phone service. Same surcharge as online card payments.
In person
Pay at a TMR customer service centre, a QGAP office in regional Queensland, or a participating Australia Post outlet. Bring your renewal notice; card and cash accepted at most counters.
How much you'll pay
The amount is your standard registration cost for the term you choose — for a typical 4-cylinder car, $864.50–$877.50 for 12 months from 1 July 2026. All cylinder classes are in the 2026 rego cost tables, and the calculator gives your figure in seconds. If the due date has passed, add the late fee of $76.65 — details in late fees.
Set up email reminders
Through a free TMR account you can switch renewal notices to email and set payment reminders — the simplest way to avoid an accidental lapse, since Queensland has no rego sticker on the windscreen to jog your memory.
Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest way to pay rego in QLD?
BPAY and direct online payment avoid queues; note that card payments (online, phone or counter) attract a small credit card surcharge, while BPAY from a bank account does not.
Can I pay rego in instalments?
Queensland does not offer weekly or monthly direct-debit instalments for standard registration, but choosing a 3 or 6-month term achieves a similar effect with a small surcharge per term.
Can I pay someone else's rego?
Yes. Anyone with the registration number (or the renewal notice reference) can pay — common between family members. The registered operator does not change.
I lost my renewal notice. Can I still pay?
Yes. The online renewal service only needs the registration number, and you can also sign up for email renewal notices through your TMR account so notices are never lost again.
