If you receive a wagering and betting tax assessment or reassessment notice that you disagree with, you can lodge an objection via our online portal. You must lodge your objection within 60 days of receiving your assessment.

Your reasons for objecting must challenge the legal basis of the assessment and highlight the particular aspects that you consider incorrect. If you are objecting to a reassessment, your objection is limited to liabilities additional to or greater than those liabilities under the previous assessment. 

  1. Where to object

    Log in to the online portal, navigate to the ‘Objections’ page and select ‘Object to an assessment’.

    You can then object to the:

    • amount of the primary liability

    Use the text boxes to explain why you are objecting. Remember, your objection must challenge the legal basis of the assessment and highlight the particular aspects that you consider incorrect.
