Trust Fees and Charges
A trust is created by a Will, a deed, declaration or court order. Trusts are a way of providing continuing support for beneficiaries. If NSW Trustee & Guardian administers an estate that includes a continuing trust, the one-off trustee fee is not charged. If setting up a new trust or transferring a trust to NSW Trustee & Guardian, the one-off fee is charged.
