Low documentation truck finance is one of the most popular ways for Australian businesses to acquire truck without the paperwork burden of a traditional full-doc bank application. If you have a healthy bank account and an active ABN but don't maintain extensive formal financial records, low doc finance is likely the right pathway for you.

Low doc (low documentation) truck finance allows you to borrow up to $500k with minimal paperwork — typically just your ABN and driver's licence — no bank statements required. No tax returns, BAS statements or full financial accounts are required. This makes the process faster and simpler, particularly for businesses that are profitable but don't maintain extensive formal financial records.
Low Doc Documents Required
For most low doc truck finance applications up to $500k, you need: an active ABN (some lenders require 12+ months, others accept new ABNs); a valid driver's licence or passport; 3–6 months of recent business bank statements; and details of the truck being purchased (make, model, year, condition and price). That's typically all that's required.
Low Doc Loan Limits
Low doc asset finance limits vary by lender. Most lenders in our panel offer low doc finance up to $150,000 without any documentation beyond ABN and licence. From $150k to $500k, bank statements are typically required. Above $500k, most lenders require full documentation (BAS, tax returns, financial accounts). Some specialist lenders will go to $1M+ on low doc for very strong profiles — contact us to discuss larger loan requirements.
Low Doc Approval Timeframes
One of the biggest advantages of low doc finance is speed. Because there's less documentation to review, lenders can process low doc applications faster. Most low doc applications through Overdrive Funding receive a credit decision within 24–48 hours. Pre-approval is valid for 90 days, giving you time to find the right asset before committing.
