Do you provide your employees benefits that the ATO considers 'fringe benefits'? These fringe benefits are reportable if the total taxable value exceeds the threshold set by the ATO.

To tell the ATO about Reportable fringe benefits amounts (RFBA), enter the grossed-up taxable value of those benefits when finalising your employees at the end of the financial year.

titleHow do I enter reportable benefits covered by Section 57A of the FBTAA 1986?

If Section 57A of the Fringe Benefits Tax Assessment Act 1986 applies to you, you can report this to the ATO via Single Touch Payroll reporting.

Affected businesses are mainly not-for-profit organisations, such as public benevolent institutions, health promotion charities, some hospitals and public ambulance services.

If Section 57A applies, you need to report the benefits that fall under that section in the Reportable fringe benefits amount exempt from FBT under section 57A Section 57A ($) field, and show other reportable fringe benefits provided to the employees in the Reportable fringe benefits amount RFBA ($) field.

These don't need to be reported separately.
