Changes to filing and other fees in the Federal Court

The Federal Court of Australia Amendment Regulations 2010 (No 1) (the Amendment Regulations) will commence on 1 July 2010.

The Amendment Regulations make a number of changes to the item numbers and quantum of the filing and other fees set out in Schedule 1 to the Federal Court of Australia Regulations 2004 (the Regulations).

A summary of the new fees and other information on the new fees is available on the Federal Court's website.

As previously advised, the Attorney-General’s Department has indicated that further changes will be made to the Regulations to introduce a new flat fee of $100 for certain applications (and other items) that are currently eligible for fee waivers and exemptions. It is proposed that these changes will commence on 1 September 2010. The Court will provide further details of these changes as they become available.
