The Seafarer Tax Offset commenced from 1 July 2012 and is designed to encourage the development of sustainable employment and skills opportunities for Australian seafarers. A Bill to abolish the Seafarer Tax Offset was tabled in Parliament but has now lapsed. There has been no Government announcement on the future of the Seafarer Tax Offset since the lapsing of the Bill.
