Infringement Notice Payments

Payment of fines

You have 28 days to pay your Infringement Notice. After this time, a reminder letter will be sent to the defendant and if the Infringement Notice remains unpaid after a further 28 days, it will be passed to the Court for collection. At this stage an additional cost of $30 is added to the original Infringement Notice.

Below are the types of infringements that can be paid via this page:

  • Building infringements
  • Building Warrant of Fitness infringements
  • Dog infringements
  • Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act infringement
  • Litter infringements
  • Resource Management Act infringements
  • Dog infringement waiver request

Extended payment options

Payment of the Infringement Notice is requested by the due date, to avoid Court action.

Where cases of financial hardship are established by you, provision may be made, after receiving your written request, to seek an extended payment option.

Where no written request is made for such option, within two months from the date of issue of the Infringement Notice, the matter will proceed to Court.

Where a request is received within the prescribed two months, an extension of time may be given for payment, but this will not exceed a total of 6 months from the date of issue of Infringement Notice.

Payment options

Infringement payments can be made online using:

  • Credit Cards (which attracts a 1.22% fee)
  • Debit Card (which may also attract a 1.22% fee)
  • Real Time Debit (Westpac and BNZ)

To make things easier, please have your Infringement notice number handy and be certain to enter your email address correctly.

Payments made after 10.30pm New Zealand time will be processed the following business day, so please allow plenty of time for processing your payment. If you leave things too late then your payment could be processed after the due date which may result in a late payment penalty.

Once the transaction is completed you will be given a reference number and a confirmation notification will be sent to your email for your records. Please note a receipt will not be provided.

Please note we're not in a position to accept credit card payments by phone.
