Statutory declarations and certificates:
Changes to the Motor Vehicle Sales Act 2003 (introduced in the Motor Vehicle Sales Amendment Act 2010), removed the requirement for witnessed statutory declarations to be completed when a registered motor vehicle trader renews their current registration. Instead a certificate can be completed.
What is the difference between a statutory declaration and a certificate?:
The certificate confirms that you are not disqualified from registration as a motor vehicle trader in your own right in terms of sections 24 or 25 of the MVSA, and does not need to be witnessed by a person authorised under the Oaths and Declarations Act 1957.
The statutory declaration form is split into three parts. See below for an explanation of which part may apply to you.
Part A – Individual Trader:
If you are renewing your existing motor vehicle trader registration you need to sign Part A of the statutory declaration / certificate form. The certificate must be signed by the individual concerned and does not have to be witnessed by a person authorised under the Oaths and Declarations Act 1957.
Please note, if you are completing a new application to become a registered motor vehicle trader you must complete Part C (the statutory declaration) and have the form witnessed by a person authorised under the Oaths and Declarations Act 1957.
Part B and Part C – Company Trader:
If you are a company trader and you are renewing your existing motor vehicle trader registration you need to sign Part B of the statutory declaration /certificate form. Note, only one person concerned in the management of the company is required to sign a certificate confirming that every person concerned in the management of the company is not disqualified from registration as a motor vehicle trader in his or her own.
The certificate must be signed by the individual concerned and does not have to be witnessed by a person authorised under the Oaths and Declarations Act 1957.
Please note, if you are a company trader and you are completing a new application to become a registered motor vehicle trader, each person concerned in the management of the company must complete a statutory declaration (Part C of the form) stating that they are not disqualified from registering as a motor vehicle trader.
However, if a person involved in the management of the company ordinarily spends fewer than 300 days each calendar year in New Zealand, that person can sign a certificate stating that they are not disqualified from registering as a motor vehicle trader.
How long does renewal take?:
Online application – provided there are no problems with your application for renewal, once all correctly completed certificates have been returned your application will be processed and renewed within 24 hours.
Paper application – provided all forms have been completed correctly and that there are no problems with your application for renewal, your application will be processed and renewed within three working days.
Common problems with renewal applications:
Director details in the motor vehicle trader application do not match those of the registered company.
** The SUBMIT application button has not been clicked (for online applications).
** Information in a certificate does not match the information recorded in the application, that is, the name differs, date of birth or address are different.
** Some or all certificates have not been returned to the Registrar to complete your application.
If a problem is found with your renewal and registration cannot be completed, you will be sent an email outlining the problem, and advising the steps required to complete the registration process.
