I would like to clarify whether our company – a transport business – is eligible to issue a RCTI.

On the website of the Australian Taxation Office it states that:

“The Commissioner has determined that the type of goods or services sold under the agreement can be invoiced using an RCTI.”

However, it is not clear to me if transport services fall under the types of services that meet this requirement. Both us and contractors are GST registered and have a writen agreement to issue RCTI. We fall under RCTI Determination dated May 23 2023, section 6 (2)

Hi @FabianaGarofalo,


We can't confirm whether transport services fall under the types of goods or services specified in this RCTI Determination. This is because it doesn’t list or indicate that they’re specifically covered under this determination.


To issue a valid RCTI, the supply must be covered by a Commissioner’s RCTI determination, and you must also meet the standard requirements. This includes both parties being registered for GST, having a written agreement, and ensuring the RCTI contains all required information (such as both ABNs and wording that clearly shows it is a recipient‑created tax invoice). You must also give the supplier the original or a copy within 28 days of the sale or when the value is determined.


Because it isn’t clear whether your specific transport services fall under section 6(2) of the determination, the best option is to apply for a private ruling. This can give you certainty about whether your business is eligible to issue RCTIs in your circumstances.
