If you have been served with a 7 Day Notice, this is your final warning to deal with your fine before the Sheriff takes further action against you.

Your options

During the 7 day period, you can:

• pay the outstanding amount in full
• apply to pay by instalments
• apply for more time to pay
• request a review (enforcement review)
• apply for the Work and Development Permit scheme (if eligible)
• apply for the Family Violence Scheme, if you have been impacted by family violence.

Once the 7 Day Notice period expires,* you cannot apply for a payment arrangement, work and development permit, the family violence scheme or request a review.

If you don't do anything about your 7 Day Notice

If you don't do anything about your 7 Day Notice, sheriff's officers will take action to finalise the warrant. They can search for and seize your vehicle or other property to sell. They may arrest you and release you on community work permit to undertake community work (if you are eligible) or to appear before a magistrate.
