Eligibility & Compliance Approvals

Verified on the Australian Government Rover register · 2 SEVs · 4 MREs

This Nissan Skyline V35 is approved for import to Australia under 2 SEVS approvals SEV-000772 and SEV-000154, all granted on the Performance Criterion, supported by 4 Model Report Entries (MREs) including MRE-000478, MRE-000536, MRE-000508, plus 1 more on the Rover register from accredited Australian Vehicle Verifiers including ADR MODEL REPORTS PTY LTD. Approvals cover builds from Aug 1992 to Dec 2016.

Why qualified — Performance Criterion. Approvals granted under the SEVS Performance Criterion apply to vehicles that demonstrate a substantially superior performance specification — for example, power-to-weight, acceleration, or another measurable performance metric — compared with vehicles supplied to the Australian market in volume. Eligibility is build-specific: the exact build years, variants and model codes named on the approval are the binding reference.

How Carbarn runs this import. Carbarn handles every stage of the journey: auction-sheet verification, bidding with your approval, ocean freight, customs and biosecurity clearance, and full SEVS-compliant rectification at our Sydney workshop. Once verified by an Approved Vehicle Verifier, the vehicle is entered into the Register of Approved Vehicles and delivered with documentation suitable for state registration.

Please note: This explainer is general information only. Eligibility for import under SEVS is determined exclusively by the published approval on the Rover register and the Road Vehicle Standards Rules 2019. Carbarn cross-checks the exact build year, variant and model code against the published approval before bidding — confirming the published approval is the binding source.
