GST annual return

If you are eligible to lodge an annual GST return, you must lodge and pay any amounts owing by the date shown on the front of the return.

This date will be the same date your income tax return is due to be lodged.

If you don’t need to lodge an income tax return, the due date will be 28 February following the end of the annual tax period.
