Excise Tax Refunds - could you be due a refund?

With rising fuel costs and financial stresses placed on businesses due to economic uncertainties, we want to make sure that clients are clawing back on costs in any way possible.

A lot of you have off-road vehicles, plant or equipment that you fill with petrol. Some of you may not know, but the excise tax paid at the pump can be claimed back! 

NZ Petrol refunds is a registered excise tax agency that works directly with businesses to process claims.

We would encourage you to get in touch with NZ Petrol Refunds if you have off-road vehicles or equipment. They will work with you through the application process and get the excise tax refunded back to you.

Excise Tax Refunds - could you be due a refund?

In your business, do you use any petrol-powered equipment in any of following situations:

• To get around the land you work on (farm, orchard or forestry? i.e. ATV, motorbike)
• To work the land: i.e. chainsaws, lawnmowers, weed eaters, hydraladas, dingoes
• To operate your business: i.e. generators, forklifts, pumps, compressors
• On the water: must be a MSA registered vessel or jetboat.

NZ Petrol Refunds Limited (based in Kerikeri) offers a specialised service that you may be interested in.

If you are a business, and you use petrol in plant and equipment (off the road) then NZ
Petrol Refunds Limited may be able to help you claim back your excise tax, which can be up to 87.4c/L.
