GST - completing your activity statement

08 - Lodging your activity statement and paying the ATO

The due date for lodging and paying is pre-printed at the top right-hand corner of your activity statement. You can lodge and pay electronically or by mail but you need to do this on time to avoid interest and penalties.

Even if you have no amounts to report for the period or you are having difficulty paying, it's important to make sure we receive your activity statement by the due date. If you have nothing to report at any label you can phone 13 72 26 and use our automated lodgment service.
