Additional information about the changes to your Service Agreement

We recently reached out to let you know that from 1 December 2018, delivery partners will contract with an entity based here in New Zealand [Portier New Zealand Ltd] for Uber Services. According to our records, you are not registered for GST and the below information applies to you. If this is incorrect, or your GST status has changed, please contact Uber support immediately and ignore the below.

These changes are summarised below:

To help illustrate the change, we have set out an example below of how this change would normally impact a delivery partner who has confirmed that he or she is not registered for GST. This example is based on a $10 Total Fare for a partner who currently pays a 10% Service Fee. To keep the example simple, any other fees that may apply (such as the Booking Fee) have been excluded:

^a The total amount received after the Service Fee is deducted.
^b The net GST liability payable to the Inland Revenue Department (after reporting GST on the Total Fare and claiming a GST credit on the Service Fee).

It’s understandable that you might have questions about this change, and how it impacts your circumstances as an individual. We’ve included an FAQ below to provide more clarity around any questions you might have.
