How levies work

What levies you pay depend on whether you’re self-employed, an employer or an employee and whether you own and drive a vehicle.

  • What your levies pay for

    When you pay your levy invoice, license your vehicle, fill up with petrol, or go to work, you’re contributing towards helping anyone injured in New Zealand.

  • Paying levies if you own or drive a vehicle

    All motor vehicle owners pay the Motor Vehicle levy. This includes car owners, truck drivers and motorcyclists. The levy covers injuries that happen on our road

  • The levy setting process

    As all New Zealanders are paying levies, we want to make your levies as fair as possible. We review levies every two years and make changes to reflect this.
