Fuel, Rego & Tax Relief
Helping Tradies Keep More of What They Earn
Government rebates, tax savings and bookkeeping support for Australian tradies.
Running a business is hard enough without trying to keep up with changing rebates, deductions and tax rules. From fuel relief and vehicle expenses through to the $20,000 Instant Asset Write-Off, understanding what your business may be entitled to can make a real difference to your cash flow.
At Tradies Bookkeeping .Com, we help tradies stay on top of BAS, GST, bookkeeping and tax-time preparation while making sure nothing gets overlooked along the way.
Whether you’re a sole trader or growing a larger operation, we’re here to help you keep more of what you earn.
Fuel Relief for Tradies
With fuel prices continuing to impact tradies across Australia, temporary fuel relief measures are helping reduce costs at the bowser. The fuel excise reduction is automatically applied when filling up, meaning there are no forms to complete or applications to submit — the savings are built straight into the pump price.
For businesses operating heavy vehicles, machinery or generators, additional Fuel Tax Credits may also be available depending on how the fuel is used.
Victorian 20% Rego Rebate
Victorian drivers may be eligible for a 20% rebate on vehicle registration costs as part of the state government’s cost-of-living relief measures.
Eligible vehicle owners can claim a rebate on up to two light vehicles, including:
-
utes,
-
vans,
-
cars,
-
4WDs,
-
and motorcycles.
Unlike fuel relief, this rebate is not automatic and requires an application through Service Victoria within the eligible claim period.
For tradies running one or two work vehicles, this rebate could mean hundreds of dollars back simply for claiming something already paid.
$20,000 Instant Asset Write-Off
The $20,000 Instant Asset Write-Off can help eligible small businesses immediately claim the cost of assets used in running their business rather than depreciating them over several years.
This may include:
-
tools,
-
trailers,
-
generators,
-
equipment,
-
computers,
-
workshop items,
-
and eligible work vehicles.
For many tradies, this can make upgrading equipment and investing back into the business more affordable while improving cash flow at tax time.
To ensure assets are recorded and depreciated correctly, it’s important to speak with your accountant or bookkeeper before lodging your tax return.
