LCT applies and is payable at the same time as when you pay your customs and GST. This all starts when you gain fed gov't import approval, and is paid before you collect your car from the wharf / logistics company.

To that end, I agree that a car already imported into the country as a complete car should have been hit with LCT, but if it was imported as parts I guess that overcomes the cost.

Luxury Car Tax is applied at point of sale, not point of registration, so LCT does not apply to an ICV. Even if VicRoads/you determine that your ICV has a "value" of 200K and you pay stamp duty on that amount, LCT does not even exist in a VicRoads system.

I have no f'in idea what the state of play is in QLD, but I'm sure the LCT part will be the same.
