Monthly payment and reporting to Inland Revenue

From 1 April 2019, employers must report employee info to the IRD every payday via payday filing instead of filing an IR348. The information on this page only applies before 1 April 2019.

Dealing with Inland Revenue is easy. There are only two things to be done each month:

1. Pay employer deductions

• Every month you must pay the IRD all tax you have deducted from employee wages in the previous month.

• If you are a small employer you do this once a month, on or before the 20th of the month.

• If you are a large employer, you'll need to pay the deductions twice a month.

2. File employment records

• Once a month you are required to provide the IRD with a summary of your wage records for the month.

• To do this in Ace Payroll, follow our guide to create and file returns with myIR.
