What is a notice of inclusion?

A Notice of Inclusion is a letter informing you that your name is now on the jury roll.

The jury roll is a list of randomly selected names of people, from the NSW Electoral Roll. Anyone registered as a voter in New South Wales can be included on the jury roll.

If you have been sent a Notice of Inclusion, it means that during the next 12 months you may receive a jury summons to attend court.

A sample of what this letter looks like can be found here (PDF, 163.2 KB).

What do I do after I receive my Notice of Inclusion?

You should log on to the juror portal to:

  • update your address, email and contact information, and
  • enter your banking details to receive jury service payments, or
  • if you are not eligible to serve on a jury as you fit into one of the exclusion categories (PDF, 181.9 KB), you should also submit your request to be removed from the jury roll on the juror portal. Supporting documentation is required.
