Businesses that pay contractors for ‘Taxable payments reporting system services’ may need to lodge a ‘Taxable payments annual report’ (‘TPAR’) by 28 August each year.

Editor: This includes businesses paying contractors in the building and construction, cleaning and IT industries (among others).

The ATO will apply penalties to businesses that have not lodged their TPAR from 2025 or previous years, and/or that have been issued three reminder letters about their overdue TPAR.

Businesses that do not need to lodge a TPAR can submit a ‘non-lodgment advice (‘NLA’) form’.  Businesses that no longer pay contractors can also use this form to let the ATO know that they will not need to lodge a TPAR in the future.
