Tax and registration in New Zealand
GST in New Zealand is administered by Inland Revenue (IRD), and it is worth confirming your current obligations there rather than relying on a figure stored in any software — rates and registration thresholds change.
If you are registered, show GST as a separate line on every receipt and include your IRD number. If you are not registered, do not add GST — collecting tax you cannot remit is a compliance problem rather than a formatting choice.
Businesses trading in New Zealand are normally incorporated or registered through the New Zealand Companies Office. Quoting your registration number alongside your IRD number tends to speed up approval with corporate and government customers, who often will not process a receipt without both.
Frequently asked questions
What currency are receipts issued in for New Zealand?
Receipts in New Zealand are typically issued in dollars (NZD). TopwebSuite supports NZD and 100+ currencies, so you can receipt any payment you take.
What's the difference between a receipt and an invoice?
An invoice requests payment; a receipt confirms payment was received. In New Zealand, you'd send an invoice first and issue a receipt once the customer pays.
Is the New Zealand receipt generator free?
Yes. Create, download and share NZD receipts for free on the web or the TopwebSuite Android app.
Who administers GST in New Zealand?
GST in New Zealand is administered by Inland Revenue (IRD). Rates and registration thresholds change, so confirm your current position with them or your accountant rather than relying on a software default.
Do I need a registration number on a New Zealand receipt?
Your IRD number is expected if you are registered for GST. Including your company registration number from the New Zealand Companies Office as well tends to speed up processing with corporate and government customers, who frequently require both before paying.
