Before You File
Use this as a guide, not the final word
If the result looks wrong, or your situation is unclear, check the official guidance
from IRD, MSD, Work and Income, or your employer.
If you have more than one job or payment, you may need a separate declaration for each
income source.

What You Can Check
This page is most useful if you are working out a code for
salary, wages, ACC payments, paid parental leave, student allowance, main benefits,
NZ Super, and the common special tax codes in the IR330 flow.
If you are being paid as a contractor or by schedular payments, this page sends you to
IR330C instead of working out a contractor rate.
If your situation is unusual, involves changing residency, tailored rates, or uncertain
annual income estimates, check with IRD before you file.
Check Again If
Slow down if any of these apply to you
NZ Super, Student Allowance, Veteran's Pension, and other government payments may involve specific payer instructions outside a normal employer workflow.
If you already hold a tailored tax code certificate, follow the certificate exactly and provide it with your declaration.
If you are unsure whether this is your main income, whether you are a New Zealand tax
resident, or which annual PAYE band applies, stop and confirm before filing.
