images/Reckon Logo.jpgIf you are running a business in the building and construction, or cleaning, courier industries (and others) you are required to lodge a Taxable Payments Annual Report (TPAR) – and you need to know when is the due date.

Here we look at what the Australian Tax Office (ATO) requires and how to Steps to set up and generate a Taxable Payments Annual Report from RECKON Accounts / Hosted software.

1  ATO Requirements

The Taxable Payments Annual Report (TPAR) is a report to the ATO about payments that are made to contractors for providing their services. Some government entities also need to report the grants they have paid in a TPAR.

Contractors include - subcontractors, consultants and independent contractors.

Contractors can be operating as sole traders (individuals), companies, partnerships or trusts.

The details you need to report about each contractor are generally found on the invoice you should have received from them. This includes:

  • their Australian business number (ABN), if known
  • their name and address
  • gross amount you paid to them for the financial year (including any GST).

The ATO uses this information to identify contractors who haven't met their tax obligations.

When to lodge – it’s due 28 August annually

There are different industries that need to report, and different start dates to begin reporting.

See our post HERE, for more detail.
