Court Fine Total Calculator
A ticket’s base fine is often only part of what’s actually payable. Use this tool to get a general sense of the total, including common additional charges.
As explained in our guide to reading a traffic ticket, the fine amount printed on a ticket is often broken into a base fine plus additional charges such as a victim fine surcharge or court costs, depending on the offence. This tool gives a general sense of what a total payable amount can look like once those additional charges are factored in — it is not an official calculation.

How the estimate works
The calculator takes a base fine amount and adds the kinds of additional charges that commonly appear on an Ontario traffic ticket, such as a victim fine surcharge or court costs, to show a general total. Because exact surcharge amounts and court costs are set by provincial schedule and can vary by offence and change over time, this tool works from general patterns rather than a single fixed formula — the amount printed on your actual ticket, or confirmed through the court office named on it, is always the reliable figure for your specific case.
What this tool can't tell you
It can’t confirm the exact surcharge or court-cost figure that applies to your specific offence, or whether any additional charges have recently changed. See our guide to reading a traffic ticket for where to find the official fine breakdown on your own ticket.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a victim fine surcharge?
It's an additional charge added to many Highway Traffic Act fines, on top of the base fine amount. The exact amount is set by provincial schedule and can vary by offence.
Will this match the total on my ticket exactly?
Not necessarily. This is a general estimate; the figure printed on your ticket, or confirmed through the court office named on it, is the reliable number for your specific case.
