Rest of world, aggregated Information
Section D seeks aggregated information regarding the jurisdictions in which the Public CBC reporting group operates that have not been disclosed individually in Section C.
Amounts should be added for a cumulative total, and positive and negative amounts should ‘net off’ if applicable.
If the reporting entity chooses to disclose information on a CBC basis for all jurisdictions in which the Public CBC reporting group operates, no aggregated information disclosure is required. However, if you report on a CBC basis only for Australian and specified jurisdictions, then you must publish aggregated information for all other jurisdictions.
Information relating to a Public CBC reporting group entity that is not considered tax resident in any jurisdiction should also be included in the aggregated reporting in this section.

Partial exemption provisions
The Public CBC reporting regime allows a partial exemption in certain circumstances from the aggregated information report. If you have been provided written notification that you have been granted a partial exemption from publishing some of your reporting obligations for a reporting period, do not include the exempt information in your aggregated information. This may include either:
- excluding one or more fields of the required information, or
- omitting reporting aggregated information for jurisdictions not listed in Section C.
Where you do not have written notification that you have been granted an exemption from publishing the information in a particular reporting field, you must complete that field.
Note: You must provide the correct information required for your circumstance. Providing information that is exempt, or not providing information when it is required, means the report has not been completed correctly in the approved form, or in accordance with the instructions.
Your Public CBC reporting obligation for the reporting period is only satisfied once you have published a correct report in the approved form, ready for publication and we have uploaded it to data.gov.auExternal Link.
