The Australian Taxation Office has published the 2026 reportable tax position schedule and detailed guidance, outlining who must lodge, the applicable income thresholds, and where to access instructions, updates, and practical examples to support compliance.

The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has released the reportable tax position (RTP) schedule and accompanying instructions for the 2026 income year on 29 January 2026.

Companies are generally required to lodge an RTP schedule if their total business income for the year is AUD 250 million or more, or AUD 25 million or more where the company is part of an economic group with a combined business income of at least AUD 250 million.

The obligation applies even where there are no reportable positions to disclose. In addition, the ATO retains the discretion to require a company to lodge an RTP schedule even if it does not meet the standard income thresholds.
