Why government employees suit a novated lease
A novated lease works best with a stable salary, packaging through your employer, and regular driving. Government roles fit all three, which is why public servants are one of the biggest groups using novated leases in Australia.
- Secure, stable income
- Salary packaging offered by almost every government employer
- The federal EV FBT exemption applies to you the same as anyone

Common questions
Do government employees get a novated lease?
Yes. Almost all government employers, at federal, state and local level, offer salary packaging, which is all you need to package a novated lease and pay for a car from pre-tax salary.
Do public servants get the EV FBT exemption?
Yes. The EV exemption is federal, so an eligible electric vehicle under $91,661 is FBT exempt regardless of which government you work for.
