Options if you're having difficulty paying
If you're experiencing financial difficulty, there are options available to help you such as setting up a payment plan.
You may be eligible to:
- have your fine reduced or written-off
- apply for a Work and Development Order (WDO).
What happens if you don't pay on time
If you've received a fine reminder notice, it's important that you make a payment by the due date to avoid additional costs.
If your fine is overdue
If your fine is overdue and you have received an overdue fine notice, additional costs of $65 (for an adult) or $25 (for a minor under 18) will apply. If your overdue fine remains unpaid, we may take further action to recover the costs.
If you weren't the driver
If you are not responsible for the offence and the offence carries demerit points, you must nominate the person responsible to have the fine transferred to them.
If you want to dispute your fine
You have the option view a camera image of your offence and request a review of your fine if you believe there were special circumstances that led to the offence being committed.
Fines issued to companies
Pay a fine or overdue fine issued to a company.

Common questions
Where do I find my reference number?
Your reference number can be found at the top of your fine notice or in the ‘how to pay’ section at the bottom of your overdue fine notice.
Why didn’t I receive a fine notice in the mail?
If you move and don’t update your address with Transport for NSW, your fine notice may have been sent to an old address. You can change your address with the NSW Government on your MyServiceNSW account or call 132 213. This will apply to your driver’s license and vehicle registrations. You must do this within 14 days of changing your address.
If you have opted to have your fines sent digitally, your fine would have been sent via email.
I’ve lost my fine or overdue fine notice. How do I pay?
If you can’t find your fine notice, you can contact us on 1300 138 118. You will need to provide the following information as proof of identification:
address
date of birth
licence number
registration number.
How do I authorise someone to act on my behalf?
You can authorise someone to act on your behalf by completing our online Authority to Act form
I’ve overpaid my fine. How do I get a refund?
If you overpay your fine, your over payment may be reallocated to any other outstanding fines you may have. If you don’t have any outstanding fines, we will refund you the amount overpaid. Please contact us on 1300 138 118 if you have overpaid.
My licence has been suspended due to unpaid fines. How do I have these restrictions lifted?
Your overdue fines must be paid before restrictions can be lifted. Payments can take up to 3 days to be received, or longer if the payment was posted. Once the payment has been received it can take 24-48 hours for the suspension on your licence or cancellation of vehicle registration to be removed.
We recommend you contact Service NSW on 13 77 88 and confirm the status of your licence or vehicle registration before driving.
