If you own a caravan in Queensland, staying up to date with safety checks and legal compliance is essential—especially when selling, registering, or transferring ownership.
At AllBrand Caravan Services, we make it simple. Our experienced team provides fast, stress-free inspections to ensure your caravan is safe and legally compliant.
In this guide, we’ll explain when certifications are required, what’s involved, and why we’re Brisbane’s trusted name in caravan inspections.
What’s a Caravan Safety (Roadworthy) Certificate?
A Safety Certificate, also known as a roadworthy, confirms that your caravan meets the safety standards required for use on public roads in Queensland..
When Do You Need a Safety Certificate?
You’ll need one if you’re:
- Selling a registered caravan
- Re-registering an unregistered one
- Transferring ownership to someone else
What’s Checked During a Roadworthy Inspection?
We check key components for safety and legal compliance:
-
Brakes & braking system
-
Tyres & wheels (tread depth, condition)
-
Lights & indicators (working correctly)
-
Coupling, safety chains & towing setup
-
Body & structural condition
If everything meets standards, we issue your certificate on the spot. If not, we’ll provide a repair plan and offer in-house services to help you get certified quickly.
Understanding Caravan Gas Compliance
If your van includes appliances like a cooktop, fridge, or hot water system powered by LPG, you’ll need a Gas Compliance Certificate to ensure everything meets national safety standards (AS/NZS 5601.2).
When Do You Need a Gas Certificate?
-
Selling a caravan with a built-in gas system
-
Registering a caravan that has LPG appliances installed
When Do You Need a Gas Certificate?
Required if you’re:
-
Selling a caravan with gas appliances
-
Registering a van that has an LPG system installed

-
Regulator & compliance plate inspection
If your caravan passes, we issue your gas certificate immediately. If any fixes are needed, we’ll handle the repairs in-house to get you compliant.
