A novated lease is a three-party agreement between you, your employer and SG Fleet. You enter into a finance lease with SG Fleet, and then a second document called a novation agreement is used to transfer some of your lease obligations to your employer.
Once the novation agreement is in place, your employer is considered to be leasing the car. This allows your car to be treated as a company car, which provides significant income tax and GST savings to you.
To maintain your novated lease, your employer deducts a regular payment from your salary (this is made up of pre- and post-tax contributions), and then remits this amount to SG Fleet to pay for your car’s running costs.
SG Fleet will monitor your driving habits and car expenses to ensure your novated lease budget stays on track. Check to see if you're eligible for a novated lease under your employer’s salary packaging policy.

Any full-time employee in Australia can take out a novated lease, subject to that individual’s employer salary packaging policy.
For you to get a novated lease with SG Fleet, you need to check that you are eligible under your work’s policies and that your employer has a current agreement in place with SG Fleet, so they are all set up to make the salary sacrifice deductions for you.
