Licence fees
From 1 July 2024, all licence fees will be frozen at their current level for 1 year to ease cost-of-living pressures for Queenslanders. Usually, licence fees increase each year due to indexation. The freeze will mean that licence fees will not increase on 1 July 2024 as they normally would.
