Diesel Rebate and Fuel Tax Refund Claims for Farming and Mining

Primary producers in agriculture, mining and forestry can recover part of the fuel levy through the diesel rebate scheme. The rules are detailed and refunds are often lost to weak record keeping. This programme shows how to qualify, calculate and defend a rebate claim.

What you will be able to do

  • Establish eligibility for the diesel rebate in primary production
  • Separate eligible from non eligible diesel usage
  • Maintain the storage, logbook and purchase records required
  • Calculate the rebate and complete the return fields correctly
  • Prepare for verification audits of rebate claims
