Applying for a New Address or Replacement RAPID Number Plate

10 June 2025

We’re making it easier and faster for you to apply for a new address or replacement RAPID number plate.

As part of our commitment to streamlining Council services and improving accessibility, we’ve launched a new online application process. Instead of calling or emailing us, you can now simply complete a form on our website.

The new system allows you to apply for:

  • A new urban address number
  • A new rural RAPID number
  • A replacement RAPID number plate to be posted to you

Prefer paper forms? Paper applications are still available at all our service centres if you’d rather apply in person.

If you have any questions or need support, please contact us at propertynumbering@tararuadc.govt.nz.
