Planned system outage - 12 September 2026 | Our online services including myIR, self service phone lines and gateway services will be unavailable on Saturday 12 September, 2026 from 1pm to approximately 10.30pm while we complete a planned system update. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Representation for Māori in Inland Revenue Te Tari Taake has remained relatively steady for the past three years, at around 12%. In the past year we saw a minor drop in tāne Māori representation, counteracted by a slight increase in wāhine Māori representation.

Exploration of attraction campaigns intentionally designed to attract Māori may help to further increase Māori representation, however we understand bringing more Māori into our entry roles is likely to negatively impact the pay gap data until we increase representation in senior leadership and technical roles.
