A new schedule of vehicle examination fees is being introduced in the Indian Ocean Territories (IOT) of Christmas Island and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands from 1 July 2021.
Consistent with information from the Administrator of the Territories of Christmas Island and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands to the community on 24 June 2020, the IOT will adopt the fee structure used by the Western Australian (WA) Department of Transport in the Kimberley region for the delivery of vehicle examination services. The Kimberley has been identified as a comparable remote regional location with the IOTs.
