Australian Capital Territory Consolidated Regulations Australian Capital Territory Consolidated Regulations(1) This section applies in relation to an application for the registration of a registrable vehicle if the vehicle identifier for the vehicle is the same as the vehicle identifier for a vehicle that is recorded as having been written-off (the "relevant record") in—
(a) the written-off vehicles register; or
(b) an approved corresponding WOVR and the road transport authority has notice of the relevant record in the corresponding register.
(2) If the relevant record indicates that the vehicle is a statutory write-off, the road transport authority must refuse to approve the application for the vehicle's registration.

(a) the vehicle is the original vehicle to which the vehicle identifier was assigned; and
(b) the vehicle complies with the applicable vehicle standards.
(4) However, subsection (3) does not apply if the vehicle has been re-registered, or the vehicle's registration has been renewed, since the relevant record was made.
