How to dispute a toll notice in Victoria

In Victoria, toll notices come from the operator — EastLink or Linkt (CityLink). Query the trip, charge or admin fee with the operator first, and submit a statutory declaration if you weren’t the driver. If a toll goes unpaid and becomes an infringement, it’s handled through Fines Victoria. It’s free to query.

Stage 1 — query the operator

While it’s a toll invoice from EastLink or Linkt (CityLink), deal with them directly about the trip, the charge or the admin fee. If you weren’t the driver, ask about their statutory-declaration process and any deadline.

Stage 2 — if it becomes an infringement

If a toll stays unpaid and is escalated to an infringement, it moves into the Victorian fines system administered by Fines Victoria, where a different review process applies.
