Carnet de Passage Question

Can you still get the Carnet de Passage (CDP) if your vehicle is no longer registeret in your home country? I know it says so on the website but do anyone actually check?
We are planning a VERY long trip and we think our irst country where we would need the CDP will be Australia.

Here is why I am asking.
I live en Denmark. Every 2 years I have to get the vehicled inspected and approved for driving on the road. If I am out of the country for more than 2 years this will be a problem.
A chack in another country is not valid.
When I miss the inspection I will first get a fine and then my registration will be cancelled. So I will have to cancel my registration before this happens.

Most countries I dont think this will any issue as I can not imagine anyone at any borders will care. But in some countries I will need a CDP.
We proberly wont need the CDP until going to Australia and I do not think this will happen within the 2 years.
So at some point my vehicle will no longer be registered in Denmark but I will need a Carnet de Passsage.

We can not get the CDP in Denmark, but has to go through the German Automobile Association.
On the website it says that the vehicle has to have a valid registration.
Does anyone know if they check if the vehicle is still registered?
Does any of you long term travelers have any experience traveling the world with an unregistered vehicle?
And especially during the trip needing a CDP.
Will I really have to get my CDP before leaving such a long time before needing it?
Any help with this will great.. Thank you all..

Please do send me a PM if you can help and do not feel like sharing online.

Hello


First, no I don't, I paid a lot of money to keep my registration valid.
Since I'm not going to give you an illegal advice, I do it here in the open.

Just something to consider, it doesn't matter if you are able to get a CDP and enter a country that requires a CDP/proper registation.

The problems will start when you're involved in a serious accident.
Then the police, custom and lawers of your local insurance get involved and they might have more time to look into it than the officer at the border had.
Espacially in a first world country like Australia.


good luck and save travel
