The Ministry of Justice is increasing fees in courts and most Ministry administered tribunals.
This is a consumer’s price index (CPI) inflation adjustment to ensure the fees the Ministry charges better reflect the costs of operating court and tribunal services, and that these services remain financially sustainable.
The fee increases will take effect from 1 July 2025.
