Eligibility & Compliance Approvals

Verified on the Australian Government Rover register · 1 SEV · 1 MRE

This Toyota Hiace Welcab KDH201 is approved for import to Australia under SEVS approval SEV-000656, granted on the Mobility Criterion and valid until 26 Sept 2027. The approval is linked to MRE-000038 (Category NA, issued by SYDNEY AVV PTY LTD) Approvals cover builds from Jan 2004 to Oct 2024.

Why qualified — Mobility Criterion. The SEVS Mobility Criterion applies to vehicles designed, factory-built, or appropriately modified (including by approved post-manufacture providers) to accommodate users with reduced mobility — for example wheelchair access, hand controls or transfer seats. Eligibility is build-specific and granted on the basis of the documented features on the approval.

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.
