As of 1 April 2019 the way companies have to report payroll to the IRD is significantly changing in New Zealand. All employers need to ensure they are compliant. The new payday filing requirements mean employers will need to complete employee payments to the Inland Revenue (IRD) every pay run. A new seamless connection between IRD and your payroll system is needed to handle the increased reporting frequency. This means every affected employer will need to either upgrade or replace their payroll system by 1 April 2019 in order to comply with their new reporting obligations.
