National Heavy Vehicle Regulator

The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) is Australia’s regulator for heavy vehicles.

We are headquartered in Brisbane and employ more than 1,000 people across the ACT, New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania and Victoria.

We were established in 2013 as a statutory authority to administer one set of laws – the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) – which applies in all Australia’s states and territories except the Northern Territory and Western Australia.

Our vision is to have a safe, efficient and productive heavy vehicle industry serving the needs of Australia.
