Taxi subsidy interstate

<--- return to Hot Topic index

Q: I live in NSW and use the Taxi Transport Subsidy Scheme (TTSS). Can I use my TTSS vouchers to get a reduced fare when I'm visiting another State?

A: The NSW TTSS has reciprocal arrangements with taxi subsidy schemes in the other States and Territories. However the TTSS vouchers can't be used there and eligible people are required to apply for the reciprocal subsidy vouchers from the NSW Ministry of Transport. The reciprocal TTSS vouchers provide the same subsidy: 50% of the metered fare, to a maximum $30 per trip.

Don't wait too long to get your application in. It can take 14 days to be processed.

People outside NSW can do likewise with their home schemes.

For further information and the interstate taxi voucher application form go to www.transport.nsw.gov.au/concess_grants/ttss.html or contact the NSW TTSS on 1800 623 724.


Only the reciprocal system vouchers can be used by interstate users. You can try a request to the state authority but they may not honour the voucher.
