The grand prix has moved from March 31-April 3 to March 17-20, forcing the Tasmanian round change.
The state's round had originally been scheduled for March 18-20.
“It’s a very simple and neat swap of dates for these two events which won’t affect the rhythm of the revamped calendar for 2016,” V8 Supercars chief executive James Warburton said on the sport's website on Thursday.
“We believe the 2016 calendar is a major win for fans and the most exciting the sport has seen.
''It delivers consistent and regular events throughout the season and expands the championship into Asia in what is a truly exciting development for the sport.''
