Getting your tax wrong can be more than just an oversight.

IRD continues to take a firm stance where income is underreported, particularly when the pattern goes beyond a simple error. In these cases, shortfall penalties for tax evasion may apply.

With increased data matching and access to information, discrepancies are more likely to be identified.

Ensuring your reporting is accurate and well supported is key.

If you are unsure about your tax position, feel free to reach out to us.

Proposed changes to how shareholder loans are taxed have now been put on hold.

Inland Revenue had suggested treating certain shareholder loans as dividends, a move that raised concerns for many business owners. Following political opposition, those proposals will not proceed in their current form.

However, Inland Revenue is continuing to review this area, particularly where companies enter liquidation with outstanding shareholder balances.

While no immediate changes will apply, this remains an area to watch closely. If you have a shareholder current account or regularly draw funds from your company, it’s important to stay informed and ensure your structure remains appropriate.

KiwiSaver changes are on the way.
From 1 April 2026, default contribution rates will increase from 3% to 3.5% for both employees and employers, with a further rise to 4% planned from 2028.

For most people, this change will happen automatically through payroll. If you’re already contributing above 3%, your rate won’t change, but employer contributions will adjust where required.

The update also means eligible 16 and 17-year-olds will begin receiving employer contributions, an important step towards earlier retirement savings.

While the changes are gradual, they may affect take-home pay and business payroll processes.
If you’re unsure how this applies to you, get in touch with our team.

Fuel prices are continuing to rise across New Zealand, placing increasing pressure on household budgets.

In response, the Government has introduced a targeted support package for working families. Around 140,000 households will receive an additional $50 per week through the In-Work Tax Credit, starting from 7 April, with payments made weekly or fortnightly.

The support is aimed at working families on moderate incomes and will be available for up to one year, or until fuel prices fall below $3 per litre. With petrol prices reaching as high as $4 per litre in some areas, this provides timely relief for those most affected.

While not all groups are included, the approach reflects a measured balance between targeted support and managing broader economic pressures.

Not all property costs are treated the same.

Inland Revenue has released updated guidance on how to treat repairs and maintenance expenditure. While the rules themselves haven’t changed, the new statement brings clearer structure, practical examples, and better guidance for real-world situations.

This is especially important now that depreciation on buildings is no longer allowed. The difference between a repair (deductible) and a capital improvement (non-deductible) can significantly impact your tax position.

The updated guidance also includes specific insights into complex areas like leaky building remediation, an issue many property owners and businesses continue to face.
Now is a good time to review how your property-related costs are being treated.

Not sure how this applies? Reach out, we’ll help you work through it.

Big changes to NZ overseas investment rules from 6 March 2026

New Zealand is making it easier for foreign investors — with simpler approvals and stronger incentives for high‑value capital.
What’s changing?
• One simplified approval test
• Active Investor Plus visa holders may apply to buy or build homes over $5M
• Easier pathways for large build‑to‑rent projects
• A new agency focused on attracting overseas investment
• Forestry rules may affect investment choices

NZ is clearly positioning itself as more investment‑friendly, but how this affects you depends on your residency status, structure, and asset type.
If you invest across borders, now is the time to review your strategy.
If you need any assistance reach out to us.

Sole traders often hear that simple and automated is best.
And for some, it works.

But as income grows and decisions get bigger, many businesses want more than automation.

They want clarity.
Structure.
Advice that fits their situation.

Automation handles tasks.
Advisors help sole traders and companies make better decisions.

Because structure isn’t a one size fits all, it should fit where you’re heading.

If you want tailored advise for your business, whether you are a company or a sole trader, get in touch with our team!
