We require some information from you for ATO reporting.
Tax reporting for the ATO

Why we're asking you to do this
- Westpac is required by law to provide the ATO with annual customer reports. It’s important that we’re able to report your details accurately as it may affect your entity’s tax assessments
- By collecting this information, we can add it to your entity’s profile and ensure our reporting to the ATO is correct
- In line with global Common Reporting Standards (CRS), this information may be shared by the ATO with tax authorities in other countries.
