The ATO has confirmed that it will continue to accept credit card payments for tax obligations until 30 June 2027 (i.e., despite the Reserve Bank’s credit card surcharge reforms).
After 30 June 2027, taxpayers who wish to continue using a credit card to meet their tax obligations may continue to use third-party payment providers.
The ATO encourages taxpayers considering these options to carefully evaluate any relevant fees, charges and processing timeframes.
