November 9, 2023

The ATO has registered a gazette to acquire officeholder information from ASIC, the Office of the Registrar of Indigenous Corporations (ORIC) and the ACNC for 2023-24 to 2024-25.

The objectives of the data-matching program include:

  • increased uptake of the director ID
  • linkage of officeholders known to the ATO and their associated companies registered with ASIC, ORIC and the ACNC
  • effective correspondence regarding director ID obligations and
  • the utilisation of registry data in combatting unlawful activity. The ATO estimates that records relating to approximately 11 million individuals will be obtained.
