NSW Treasurer Matt Kean said eligible small-business operators would be able to claim up to an additional $750 in rebates once they’ve spent $375 in a year on a business toll account.
Sole traders can backdate claims to 1 July 2022 and claim 40 per cent of what they’ve spent, up to $750 a year.
This is in addition to the up to $750 a year in rebates available to sole traders for tolls incurred for their non-business activities, giving them a total of up to $1,500.
“This will make a big difference to many small business operators who will receive cash in their accounts within days of claiming,” said Mr Kean.
“Eligible drivers will also be able to claim free or half-priced rego until 30 June, in addition to the toll rebate.”
Minister for Metropolitan Roads, Natalie Ward, said more than 65,000 drivers had already claimed $26.9 million in the first three weeks of the new scheme.
Claims can be lodged through MyServiceNSW accounts.
Customers just need to verify their identity, link their NSW toll account, and then submit their claim. The MyService account also features a Toll Tracker, enabling motorists to easily track their expenditure before lodging a claim.
Customers who need assistance verifying their identity, linking their toll account, or submitting a claim can call Service NSW on 13 77 88 for guidance or by visiting their nearest Service NSW Service Centre for digital kiosk support.
