After 30 June 2026, the threshold is scheduled to drop to $1,000. This means the window to take advantage of the current $20,000 threshold is closing. If you have been planning equipment purchases, the time to act is now. Equipment must be installed and ready for use before June 30 to qualify.
The instant asset write off allows eligible small businesses to immediately deduct the business portion of the cost of an asset in the year it is first used or installed ready for use. For the current financial year ending 30 June 2026, the threshold is $20,000 per asset. This means you can buy, finance, and deduct equipment worth up to $20,000 each in the current tax year.
If you have been putting off buying tools, equipment, or vehicles for your business, the next 10 weeks are your last chance to claim up to $20,000 per asset as an immediate deduction. Do not let the deadline pass without taking advantage of this benefit.
Understanding the rules ensures you maximise the benefit and avoid the common mistakes that lead to missed claims or ATO scrutiny.
Each individual asset costing less than $20,000 (before GST for GST registered businesses) qualifies. You can purchase multiple items. There is no cap on the total amount you can claim across all qualifying assets.
The asset does not just need to be purchased by June 30. It must be delivered, installed, and ready for use in your business by that date. Ordering something that arrives in July does not qualify.
Your business (including connected entities) must have aggregated turnover of less than $10 million to qualify for the instant asset write off.
Both new and second hand assets qualify, provided the cost is below the threshold and the asset is used for a taxable purpose in your business.
While the $20,000 threshold covers smaller items, most trucks, trailers, and heavy equipment exceed this limit. These assets go into the simplified depreciation pool instead, with 15% in year one and 30% each year after. Here is what you can claim and how.
