You can withdraw an appeal at any time until a decision has been issued by the tribunal.
It’s free to withdraw your appeal. To withdraw your appeal, fill in this form:
Withdrawal of appeal – Form 9 [PDF, 468 KB]
Then give it to the tribunal by email or fax or by posting it to us or bringing it to our office. In some cases your appeal will be withdrawn if you leave New Zealand.
The case is closed as soon as the tribunal receives your withdrawal form. Appeal fees are not refunded if an appeal is withdrawn.
