Due to the National Latest U-Turn, the App Tax is in! Yikes. Implementation date: April 2024
What is the APP TAX It is a tax on digital platforms to charge GST on their services even though their total taxable supply may be below the threshold of $60k per annum. |
Services using digital platforms like Uber and Airbnb will be affected. Someone that uses a ridesharing app twice a week could be paying hundreds of dollars extra a year, and a $400 weekend away booked through a digital provider could be $60 more expensive. |
Please contact us if you think your business will be affected. Email us at info@achievebiz.co.nz.
