Some services unavailable 16 - 17 November | myIR, gateway services and our self-service phone line will not be available from 3pm Saturday 16 November to 9am Sunday 17 November while we do planned system testing. This will not affect any tax entitlements or payments scheduled during this time.

Before you start

To tell us about your interest in a controlled foreign company (CFC) you'll need a few details:

  • your IRD number
  • the company's name 
  • the country where the company is incorporated or where it's a tax resident
  • the market value in New Zealand dollars at the beginning or end of your income year
  • the main business activity
  • a copy of financial statements
  • the number of employees.

File a controlled foreign company disclosure

Download and complete the CFC and FIF disclosure spreadsheet. Then, log in to myIR and either:

  • send us a web message with the disclosure attached
  • amend a return you've already filed in myIR, and upload the controlled foreign company disclosure when you're asked if you want to do this.
