vicroads ev tax

Short version: Victoria’s EV road user charge (the ZLEV distance-based levy) was struck down by the High Court in October 2023, so it’s no longer payable.

VicRoads ceased issuing and enforcing these charges after the ruling—no need to dig for coins at the servo.

If you previously received invoices or paid, expect to be contacted about next steps; keep your odometer records handy until the paperwork catches up.

This only touches that per-kilometre levy, not your regular rego, tolls, or parking.
