Nothing. There is no fee for a volunteer blue card. Blue Card Services lists no fee for volunteers linked to an organisation (fees current from 1 July 2026), and volunteers should ask their club to link their application before applying.
For comparison, a new paid-work blue card is $108.30, and moving from a volunteer card to paid work or a business also costs $108.30. A replacement card costs $16.35 for all applicants.
