Five geographical zones determine green slip prices
Geographical zone, like vehicle classification, is an important factor in determining CTP greenslip prices.
Geographical zones (or rating regions) are allocated by State Insurance Regulatory Authority (SIRA) and are part of the Premiums Determination Guidelines issued by SIRA to the insurers each year. Insurers are required to set greenslip prices on the basis of the geographical zones set out in those guidelines.
NSW is divided into five geographic zones in the Schedule of Premium Relativities for the purpose of setting greenslip prices. Five postcodes are split between two zones.
Information on vehicle classifications is also on this site.
The allocation of postcodes to zones is in the table below.
