Introduction

An introduction to compliance and our general approach to improving compliance.

Our general approach to improving compliance

Our approach to managing and improving compliance reflects that most people and businesses comply with their tax obligations and receive the social support they are entitled to of their own accord. In the majority of cases we help people and businesses self manage their compliance, while being able to better identify and deal firmly with those who choose not to do the right thing.

Collaboration and global networks

Global collaboration in tax administration is not a passing trend. For a small country like New Zealand, it is a vital element in ensuring we keep up with emerging risks and apply best international practices.

Contributing to a successful New Zealand

Inland Revenue plays a key role in improving the economic and social wellbeing of New Zealanders. We collect taxes and administer social support programmes for the New Zealand Government.
