Sole traders

If you’re a sole trader with a personal and/or business toll account, you may also be eligible for the sole trader toll relief rebate

Eligibility

To claim, you need to:

  • be a NSW resident
  • spend $375 or more on eligible tolls in a financial year
  • have an active NSW personal toll account (E-Toll or Transurban Linkt) – if you've moved from interstate, check with your toll provider that you now have a NSW personal account suitable for toll relief
  • have already paid for the tolls
  • have an active NSW toll provider account (not suspended or closed) 
  • have accrued the tolls on a vehicle that's privately registered in NSW, and is below 2794kgs TARE weight
  • have travelled on an eligible NSW toll road
  • claim within one year of the financial year end in which you paid the tolls
  • have not already received:
    • a rebate in the quarter for which you're claiming
    • the maximum rebate in the financial year for which you're claiming.

Note: You must accumulate the eligible toll spend on one personal toll account at a time. If you have multiple tag or tagless products on the one account, the toll spend for all eligible vehicles on that account will count towards the rebate.
