​​​​Monthly payroll tax thresholds

​T​he monthly threshold amounts varies according to the number of days in the month and year and whether an employer is a member of a group for payroll tax purposes or not. They are rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount. 

Examples of how to calculate the thresholds and your payroll tax periods of less than one year are available in the Annual adjustment return guideline. 

Australian group wages
If the Australia-wide wages cannot be obtained on a monthly basis, an estimate based on one twelfth of the previous year’s Australia wide wages can be used for the calculation of the threshold entitlement. 

Employers not wishing to claim a threshold amount must pay tax of 6.1 per cent on all Tasmanian taxable wages for the month. ​​​​​​​
