Motor Vehicle Dealer Licence — verification in WA

Motor vehicle dealers are licensed (record prefix MD) to buy and sell vehicles commercially in Western Australia, with yard managers and salespersons holding their own authorisations under the scheme.

Who needs it

Businesses dealing in motor vehicles in WA — new and used car dealerships and wholesalers.

How verification works

Search by MD number or name to confirm the dealer licence is current. RefChecks licence verification covers construction credentials — the White Card, High Risk Work Licences and trade licences — read from the candidate's document and confirmed against the state register in a single check. This record type sits outside that scope.

Verified against the WA Government Online Licence Search, operated by the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety. Where the register and this page differ, the register prevails.
