A caravan gas certificate is required by the Department of Transport and Main Roads prior to registration or transfer of registration for any caravan, camper trailer or motorhome that is fitted with a gas system.
A caravan gas certificate inspection is a thorough inspection of the gas system to ensure it is safe and functioning correctly and complies with Australian Standards.
Checks include:
A thorough gas inspection is vital for your safety and the safety of others. LPG is an excellent energy dense, portable fuel and gas systems are safe when installed and maintained correctly, but can be very dangerous if the installation is non-compliant with Australian Standards.
Without a gas certificate, your caravan, camper trailer or motorhome cannot be sold or transferred legally in Queensland.

In Queensland, it’s a legal requirement for every caravan, camper trailer and motorhome that is fitted with a gas system to have a current gas certificate before it can be registered or the registration transferred to another owner.
You will need a gas certificate in situations such as:
First-time Registration: Brand-new or previously unregistered caravan, camper trailer or motorhome.
Transferring Ownership: When buying or selling a caravan, camper trailer or motorhome.
Registering an Interstate caravan, camper trailer or motorhome: The caravan, camper trailer or motorhome is being transferred into Queensland registration.
Without a gas certificate, caravans, camper trailers and motorhomes cannot be legally, sold or transferred. It’s an essential step to ensure your caravan, camper trailer or motorhome is safe, compliant, and road-ready.
All gas certificate inspections in Queensland are conducted to ensure the gas system is compliant with Australian Standard 5601.
By checking your caravan, campervan or motorhome against this standard, we make sure it meets compliance requirements, from leaks to warning labels.
This gives you confidence that your gas system is safe to use and fully compliant with all relevant standards.
At DD Roadworthies, our inspectors are fully licensed to conduct these checks and issue the necessary gas certificate.
Even small issues can prevent a trailer from passing its gas certificate inspection.
Identifying and fixing these issues early can save you the time of a failed inspection and the extra cost of re-testing.
With our gas certificate pre-inspection checklist, you’ll be able to spot issues early, giving your caravan the best chance of passing inspection the first time and being road-ready quickly.
