Australia only If you work in the building and construction industry, you are required to report to the ATO the amount of all payments you make to contractors for services (such as labour). This does not apply to businesses in other industries who make purchases from building and construction-related businesses. What transactions do you need to report?You need to report the total payments you make to each contractor or supplier for building and construction services each year. This doesn’t include payments for materials, but you should report any transactions that include a service component. For example, you would be required to report a transaction involving the purchase of paint alongside painting services. For more information, see the ATO website. What do I need to do?At the end of the financial year, you need to produce the Taxable payments annual report to declare all of your taxable payments to the ATO. For more information, see Producing the Taxable payments annual report.
