IRD Filing and Payments

KeyLink's IRD Filing and Payments

KeyLink prepares and files payroll related returns with New Zealand's Inland Revenue Department (IRD).

KeyLink prepares and electronically files:

  • ED - Employee Details
    This includes any new employees, change in employee information and terminations
  • EI - Employment Information
    This includes:
    • Gross Taxable Income
    • PAYE
    • Child Support
    • Student Loan
    • KiwiSaver Employee Deduction
    • KiwiSaver Employer Contribution
    • ESCT

KeyLink also handles any corrections to filing that may be required.

With the advent of Payday filing, we no longer support customers who wish to file themselves.

We guarantee we will file correctly and on-time and will cover any penalties incurred due to incorrect or late filing.

IRD Payments

KeyLink can make IRD payment on your behalf. See here for more details on our payment methods.

The single "PAYE" payment includes:

  • PAYE
  • Child Support
  • Student Loan
  • KiwiSaver Employee Deduction
  • KiwiSaver Employer Contribution
  • ESCT

KeyLink does not prepare or file Fringe Benefit Returns. 

Definitions:

  • PAYE : Pay As You Earn. How salaried and waged New Zealanders pay their income tax.
  • ESCT : Employer Superannuation Contribution Tax. The tax paid by employers on KiwiSaver and other Superannuation contributions. The rate is based on the employee's marginal tax rate.
