That’s why most Australians choose to pay for a tax agent like Nightax. Plus, the fees are tax-deductible!

Do I Have to Pay Tax Agent Fees When I Lodge My Tax Return?
No, you don’t have to pay upfront! With Nightax, you can choose to have our small fee deducted directly from your tax refund once it’s issued by the ATO. Simply select the “Fee from Refund” option on the signing page, and when your refund is processed, we’ll deduct our fee and transfer the remainder to your nominated bank account.

Please note that there is a small additional fee for this service. You can find more details about our tax return fees below.

What Does a Nightax Tax Return Cost?

Nightax offers transparent pricing with no hidden charges for services that other tax agents might add extra fees for, including:

  • Deductions: Our accountants will help you identify deductions to maximize your tax refund, and this assistance is already included in the tax agent fee.
  • ETP (Employee Termination Payment): No additional charge for handling ETP.
  • Business Tax Returns: Starts at $195.90 for detailed business claims such as Net Income or Loss from Business, Deferred Non-commercial Business Losses, or business reporting items (P4–P19). This doesn’t apply to most sole traders—just those with more complex business claims. If you’re unsure, feel free to ask our friendly accountants!
  • Overdue Prior-Year Returns: A fee of $129.90 applies for prior-year returns, as our accountants need to refer to ATO rules for the relevant year and may assist with negotiating penalties or arranging payment plans.

What’s Included in the Basic Fee:

  • Tax agent support
  • Live Chat
  • Advice and re-checking
  • Accountant review
  • Fast electronic lodgement

At Nightax, we never charge a percentage of your tax refund or apply interest fees. You pay a simple, flat tax agent fee, ensuring complete transparency!
