Government has repealed Clean Car Discount scheme

14 December 2023

The Government has today announced it passed legislation repealing the Clean Car Discount for all vehicles registered after 31 December 2023.

The Clean Car Discount started in 2021 to provide rebates and charges based on carbon emissions for new and used vehicle imports. Repealing the scheme means that:

• charges end for all vehicles registered after 11.59 pm on 31 December 2023
• rebate applications will also close after 11.59 pm on 31 December 2023.

To receive a rebate on their vehicle purchase, people will need to submit their application by 11.59pm 31 December 2023.
