Note 3: Fuel tax credit rates change for fuel used in a heavy vehicle for travelling on a public road due to changes in the road user charge. The heavy vehicle road user charge will increase by 6% each year over 3 years from 28.8 cents per litre for petrol and diesel in 2023–24, to 30.5 cents per litre in 2024–25 and to 32.4 cents per litre in 2025–26.

Note 4: The road user charge rate for gaseous fuels per kilo gram rate will increase from 38.5 cents per kilogram in 2023–24, to 40.8 cents per kilogram in 2024–25, and to 43.2 cents per kilogram in 2025–26. Currently, the road user charge reduces fuel tax credits for gaseous fuels to nil.
