Pay Electronically - BPAY

You can pay your tax liability by phone or via the Internet through BPAY. If your financial institution offers BPAY, simply call its phone banking or BPAY payment service and follow the voice prompts. Alternatively, log onto their Internet site and follow the screen prompts to make a payment from your nominated account (savings or cheque accounts only).

You will need to quote your Biller Code (ATO - 75556) and your EFT Code as the Customer Reference number.

The BPAY logo and biller code are located:

  • on the details screen of your e-BAS, or
  • on the back of your payment advice form (if you receive a paper BAS).

Your EFT Code is the string of numbers found:

  • immediately below the biller code and titled EFT, on the details screen of your e-BAS, or
  • immediately above the barcode on your payment advice form (if you receive a paper BAS).

BPAY payments made on a weekend, public holiday or out of hours will not reach the Tax Office until the next working day. Check with your financial institution for processing deadlines to ensure your payment reaches the Tax Office on or before the due date.

Once a payment has been made you will be issued with a receipt number. You should record this number for future reference.

For more information about how to use BPAY, please contact your financial institution.
