You can use your boat for up to 21 days while you are waiting for your label.
To renew the registration, follow the instructions printed on the notice or go to how to renew your boat registration below.
If you have not received a renewal notice, follow one of the four steps below to renew your motor boat, or complete the application for registration renewal of a motor boat and return it to a Service SA customer service centre with the appropriate fee.
Please note the following
1 Check that the renewal notice is correct and it is for your boat.

3 No concessions are available.
How to renew your boat registration :

2. Telephone 1300 363 805 between 8.00 am and 6.00 pm Monday to Friday :
You will need to provide the registration number, name of the registered owner and some of your boat details to the operator. This information is shown on your certificate of motor boat registration or invitation to renew boat registration.
3. Go to a Service SA customer service centre :
Payment is accepted by cash, cheque, debit card, MasterCard, Visa, money order or a travellers cheque in Australian currency. You will receive a receipt for your fee paid.
Your motor boat registration label will be posted to your recorded postal address, usually within 10 working days. When you register your vessel, please make sure you have given us your correct and current address details.
Boat and car licence and registration details are kept separately, so if you have changed your address for a motor vehicle registration or motor vehicle licence, you must also advise us to change your boat registration or boat licence details.
4. Return the renewal notice by mail :
Post the completed renewal notice to the address printed on the front of the notice or to the nearest Service SA customer service centre.
Ensure you include payment by;
1 cheque or money order, marked not negotiable and made payable to Department for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure
2 providing your MasterCard or Visa card details (card number, expiry month/year, and name of cardholder).
Using a boat without a registration label :
It is an offence to operate a recreational vessel that doesn’t have a current registration label attached, unless all these apply;
1 the required fee for the registration has been paid
2 you have not yet received the label
3 no more than 21 days have passed since the fee was paid.
If your label does not arrive within 21 days, telephone 13 10 84 or go to a customer service centre and check your address details. If your address is correct and your label has still not arrived a replacement will be posted free of charge. You may use the vessel for up to 21 days while waiting for the replacement to arrive.
