Fuel Tax Credits are under threat by activists, and real business stories are one of the strongest ways to show why they matter.
Across Australia, businesses rely on off-road fuel to keep working, support jobs, serve customers and keep communities moving.
If Fuel Tax Credits are cut, capped or removed, higher costs could hit businesses already under pressure. Those costs could affect workers, customers, projects, local services and regional communities.
That’s why we want to hear from you.
You do not need to be a confident public speaker. You do not need a polished video. A simple phone recording is enough.
We want real stories, from real Australians who could be affected by changes to Fuel Tax Credits.
By sharing your story, you can help show Australians the real-world impact of higher fuel costs and why we are saying: Hands Off Our Fuel.
Use the form below to submit your video and tell us how changes to Fuel Tax Credits could impact your business.
Use your phone to record a 15 to 60 second video at your workplace, on site or somewhere relevant to your business.
Explain who you are, what your business does, how you use off-road fuel and what higher fuel costs would mean for your business, workers, customers or community.
Optional: You can also add what your thoughts are about activists running another campaign targeting your industry.
Submit your video using the form and include your contact details so we can follow up if needed.
You can use this as a guide:
Hi, I’m [Name] from [Business] in [Location].
We rely on off-road fuel to [briefly explain what your business does].
Fuel Tax Credits matter because they refund a road tax on fuel that is not used on roads.
If Fuel Tax Credits are cut, capped or removed, it would mean [explain the impact].
That would affect [our costs / our workers / our customers / our community].
That’s why I’m saying to activists: Hands Off Our Fuel.
Australian businesses are already being hit with rising costs. Now Fuel Tax Credits are under threat.
Fuel Tax Credits are not a subsidy, they simply refund a road tax on fuel that is not used on roads.
Across Australia, farmers, freight operators, builders, fishers and tourism businesses rely on off-road fuel to do essential work. Fuel Tax Credits make sure they are not paying a road tax on fuel that is never used on roads.
Fuel tax credits support businesses that use fuel off public roads, but activists are pushing to scrap or cut them, putting pressure on industries already facing rising costs.
Cutting or removing Fuel Tax Credits would add another cost to businesses already under pressure. Those costs would not stop there. They would flow through to the things Australians rely on every day, including food, freight, housing, regional jobs and local services.
Enough is enough.
Australians have taken action
I’m signing to support the farmers, fishers, builders, freight operators, tourism businesses, miners and regional communities that rely on off-road fuel to keep Australia moving.
